California could reap an economic boon worth $16 billion by legalizing its 1.8 million Latino illegal immigrant adults, helping fix the state's financial problems, according to a report released last week by the USC Center for the Study of Immigrant Integration.

"Our immigrants are an asset economically, politically, religiously and culturally," said the Rev. Patricio Guillen, a retired Roman Catholic priest who is executive director of Libreria del Pueblo, a San Bernardino nonprofit that helps immigrants.

I can't believe how ignorant some people are. The Rev. Patricio Guillen should be ashamed to say such.
And just how could we save all those Billions of dollars just by legalizing the illegals? I am still trying to figure out what he said.
