The Stork brings entitlement taxes

Yahoo:

With Donald Trump as the presumptive Republican nominee for president, the topic of immigration will likely emerge as a major topic of debate during the general election.
Trump’s opponent, Hillary Clinton, has framed the need for immigration reform as a family issue and an “economic issue” while calling for a “pathway to citizenship” for undocumented immigrants.
Indeed, many undocumented immigrants in the US already contribute a great deal to the country’s economy, according to a new report from Bank of America Merrill Lynch (BAML). That report noted that in 2014 unauthorized immigrants had a labor force participation rate of 70% compared to 62.9% for the overall population.
I see the plot, Americans get an entitlement  vacation, immigrants pay the bills.
