Do We Really Need the Illegal Immigration Stampede?

Realizing that the U.S.A. provided funding for the welfare assisted poor with food stamps, housing, Medicaid and free education for all children has caused an immigration (legal and illegal) stampede to the U.S.A.
The population of the U.S.A. increased by 100 million people in the past 40 years. The assorted freebies granted to immigrants have drawn them like magnets to reap the benefits of the assisted U.S.A. lifestyle.

It worked out this way. The U.S. taxpayer could fund the cost of educating the children of illegal immigrants along with supplying Medicaid, phenomena that must have been created in some Republican fat cat heaven. This was a superb subsidization formula for the rich to get richer in the building industry.
