The article posted above appears to be reporting on immigrants, not illegal immigrants. Let's keep looking though, you've got my curiousity up! I think you are right about big business - these people are not going anywhere anytime soon.

Here's an interesting site that discusses both legal and illegal immigrants...

Thanks again. I'll peruse that website.

This issue is interesting to me as well. On the BLS's site, they even stated that it is hard to really come up with accurate figures because - well, their illegal, so how do you track them or the resources that their using (aside from tracking the children who are enrolled in school)?

A complex issue indeed!
