* easy conduit for terrorists entering the USA--debatable. I'm not aware of a Mexican terror web...
* massive escalation in crime--okay, that on the other hand is a solid point.
* surge in foreign national prisoners to support for years--most likely true.
* increases multiculturalism/segregation/divisiveness instead of the American melting pot--unfortunately, I have to agree here. Hispanics have been incurring a lot of race problems recently...
* increasing number of traffic accidents--mmmmmm debatable.
* main contributor to surging US population--I'm not totally sure that's a bad thing...but I'd rather they were legal.
* dramatic impact on society and infrastructure, including education--that's been a problem for a LONG time. Illegal immigration may be exacerbating the problem, but it's hardly the cause.
* main cause of emergency rooms and hospitals closing as well as service cut backs--debatable, though it's a burden on hospitals, I don't doubt.
* introduction of third world diseases--agreed. The CDC added the typhoid vaccine back onto its must-have list in late 2006 for all children aged 6 and under, and adults 65 and over who lived in the South or Southwest states.
* increased welfare costs--almost certainly true.
* massive costs to society – over and above contributions--probably.
My responses in bold.
