• Illegals paid ~$27B total in all federal/state/local taxes FY23 (ITIN + stolen SSN contributions).
• They consumed ~$182B in combined federal benefits, K-12, ER/healthcare, incarceration & state/local programs (CIS tallied $182.7B FY23).

Grok will probably cite a Center for American Progress “myth-buster” that lists $96B paid vs $79B “benefits,” but that XX figure conveniently omits K-12 ($67B) and ER/safety-net overruns; the real delta is 7:1 against the taxpayers. -(ai)
