We should ban all immigrants from the United States

1) I agree, I could have picked a better site then CNN, however immigration.procon.org verified this fact and included that all illegal immigrants pay some tax of some sort that is automatically deducted from their pay by their employers, from the store in the form of sales tax, and other ways. 2) Yes they are still illegal, but who here hasn't committed a crime of some sort? When I was 6 I accidentally stole this little rubber toy just because my mom called me over to the resistor and so I lost focus on what I was doing (I have ADHD so I get squirrel moments) So are you going to arrest me? Probably not, illegal immigration is worse, but are you still going to deport a little child just because their parents dragged them here for a better life when they were a child? I hope you don't. But if we were to ignore that small fact, then most of them still hasn't committed a secondary crime or done anything else to provoke legal intervention. Why remove such an important part of the economy? (More on that later)3a) You have to be careful not to mix connections with coincident, or in this case mix fact with fear. www.colorado.edu states that native residents (Non immigrants) tended to commit more crimes than immigrants. Although this next part is purely opinion, you should still see where I am coming at when I say that immigrants, especially illegal immigrants, would naturally try to stay under the radar as the risk to crime greatly increases when there is a possibility of getting deported if caught.3b) Like I said in 3a, don't mix connections with coincident, it may be true that cities with high crime rate tend to have high immigrants, however, jacksonfreepress.com states that income is a direct relation to crime rate, if a community has a lower income, it is more likely to resort to crime to feed their family, this makes employment harder so they have to turn to more crime. And when an immigrant goes to a new country, they tend to move towards areas where other immigrants that share their customs are. This is how places like China town form, although I could not find out why they tend to go to cities over towns, it may have to do with work being more available there, and other immigrants already there. Together it creates the illusion that higher crime rates are connected to higher immigrants, however these two statics are separate as immigrants go where ever they want, but end up in cities as they are closer together so they seem larger. While Crime rates are more towards cities as Poverty and Crime rate are connected, immigrants avoid crime so it's unlikely that the crime rate is connected to immigrants.4) Now like I hinted to earlier, www.thenation.com states that illegal immigrants actually contribute a fair part to our economy, they don't comment on all immigrants in general. www.cbsnews.com has a graph that shows that illegal immigrants actually supply a larger percent of our workforce by just a few percent, so basically they are worth half of our economy... While this sounds like they are taking our jobs, this is actually good. www.investopedia.com States that too low of unemployment is bad, when too low of unemployment is achieved then people fear leaving their jobs to look for better ones, as they might not find a better job. It also means that many businesses will be under supplied either forcing themselves to shrink until they have enough people to fill demand, or pay larger sums of their profit to fill these jobs, less profit means less economic growth. When scaled nation wide you will see that too few jobs will force many businesses to shrink, this creates a dip in our economy, it also forces everyone to stay at their current job rather than work their way up (Pay wont always increase, and if it does the company can't support this forever).So, is deporting the immigrants worth it? Not only do we have to answer a moral question that is highley bias and debatable, we also have to look at the economic value, if we export even a small fraction of these people, where will we get people to replace them?
