U.S. citizens don't have to support them or provide for them. Let them in, but let them create their own living/working environments. Our fathers did this before us. Can't the immigrants do it today? If people are willing to work and pay taxes, why not put all the empty land to use? It costs us nothing.

No water out there.

All viable airable land was given away over 150 years ago, back in the 1800s.
