"The continued existence of illegal immigrants creates a drag on our economy as well. Even with taxes taken out of their wages, the cost associated in providing public services ( ie hospitals, etc) used by these individuals is not being maintained. Their presence also correlates to the depressed wages caused by the increases in labor availability. If managed correctly, the cost of deportation can be distributed in an appropriate manner, while minimizing the impact businesses and industry that have become dependent on inexpensive labor."

"Some candidates for President have offered aggressive tax reduction plans, lowering the taxes for corporations and individuals. This may work, but if the economy is propped up by other influences, these aggressive plans may not work as intended but resulting in huge increases in our national debt.
"Instead, a better option is to offer 2 %- 5 % decrease in taxes, with aggressive plans on closing tax loopholes. This plan provides the ability to return tax rates back to normal, while adding a bump to stimulate the economy. If the reductions work, then additional rounds of reductions can be implemented until the desired growth rate is obtained, thus avoiding undue increases to the debt."
