Xenophobia doesn't even enter into it. I'm not sure why folks can't get past that.

Your question answers itself. It's Illegal.

Wait, so let me get this right, 13%~ Asians pulled in $100~ billion more than 37%~ Latinos? In other words, Asians are much better businessmen. Or am I missing something?

We in CA have plenty of issues, when it comes to illegal aliens.
There's a state rep who wants to push through legislation that would not impound the cars of illegal unlicensed drivers, if they are stopped and ticketed. (The Los Angeles Sherrif and Mayor are trying to do the same thing.)
They're trying to ram through the California DREAM act, which would give tuition assistance for college, to illegals.
There are still other groups that are pushing for licenses for illegals.
I have no problem with anyone, of any race, religion, creed or national origin - coming to the United States legally, in search of making a better life for themselves, in fact I encourage legal immigration. But when people come illegally, and want a handout, and government officials seek to give it to them, I have a problem.
Exactly. When part of my tax money is used to further costs of taking care of illegal immigrants, be it by medical care, hospital costs for anchor babies, or any social programs, and I can't say that this money is to be used for only those that are *legal* citizens, then I have issues with the way that money is being spent. If this makes me racist, then tough.

But why? What is the difference between my tax dollars going to a person here legally that is a leech and a person her illegally that is also a leech?

You're being purposely obtuse. That it is illegal is not the moral argument for or against it, it is the argument for paying such close attention to it in order to resolve the situation satisfactorily. I have made no statements nor should you draw any conclusions about moral judgments.
There are immigration laws, millions of people are breaking them AND the government is doing basically nothing about it. Asking why this is worthy of attention is idiotic.
