I'll admit I'm channeling a little of my inner-Hoothat


in this thread, but it was really just quick reaction to HowieT3 "LOL"ing at TK's assertion that illegal immigration negatively impacts public education from a resource standpoint. I would think anyone would believe that to be true, the debate is in the "how much is the impact" (Howie's arguing it's small relative to other things and I suspect he's right) and "what do you do about it".

But yeah, pretty much anyone with kids negatively impacts the system because the average household's property taxes don't cover the average cost of a free public education of all the kids in the household. But I'm going to go out on a limb and say the average illegal immigrant family probably contributes less to the tax base than the average US citizen.
