True for much of what you say, but the money being made is often untaxed and the worldwide flow of funds out of the country where it is made has a negative impact that is pretty impactful. Money taken out of the economy and spent in other countries. Plus the cheaper labor has negative impacts on people in the country and drives wages down. Immigrants until they simulate into the country will live on almost nothing in order to send money home.

Once and if they join society and become part of the country and culture, then I would say society gains. Unfortunately like the veterans kicked out of their assisted living facility in NY that paid what little they could afford to make room for illegal immigrants who now live for free, it’s not very good. So still say, legal immigration great, illegal immigration destroys.
