They work and give back to this country as much as they take.The vast majority of illegal Latino migrants are workers. That's why they migrated: to work. More than that, they're working long hours at shitty jobs. The entire restaurant industry lives on hard-working Latinos. A surprising amount of them pay taxes, because it's much easier to find work by pretending to be a legal migrant (with fake documentation) than by finding an employer who pays under the table. They seldom use any public services at all, out of fear of being discovered as illegal migrants, and deported. They'll never collect their social security deductions back, because they can't collect social security at all.
You might not like their migration because it is illegal, but they are certainly productive, they don't generally sit on welfare (too risky), they work hard, and at least as far as payroll taxes are concerned, they give back.
