7:00 pm
gerri: that is it for tonight's "the willis report." thank you for joining us. hope you have a safe and enjoyable rest of the holiday. see you tomorrow, have a great night. >>. >> lou: hello everybody, thanks for beg with us. president obama and his staff defending his administration against thr separate controversies and scandals that have forced the president to pivot from his presidentiil legacy. the benghazi cover-up and irs targeting conservatives andhe justice department's extraornary seizure of phone records of a.p. reporters. as a relt. white house officials are spending their time doing damage contl instead of working on the president's second term agenda. while the president said he wants to pass an immigration
7:01 pm
bill before the summer but infighting of the costs over the gang of eight immigration plan and, of course, on the president's side, the scandals look as though they may well thwart his aspirations. heritage foundation is allowing 11 illegal immigrants a pathway would cost over $6 trillion. conservative economists, however are taking the heritage foundation on and arguing with the report sayi it doesn't take into account t economic benefis of immigration reform. today, we're bringing you both sides of that debate. we'll be tking to co-author o heritage study, a former congressional budget office and president of the american action foruand he'll tell us why immigration reform will invigorate our economy. also cofounder of one of the
7:02 pm
groups on the irs enemies' list. jenny beth harten. the author of a new study, robert rector, it's deja-vu all over again. we can go back to 2007, kennedy, mccain and the heritage foundation with a study and the number was $2.5 trillion. >> right. $2.7 trillion. the analysis i did and everybody agreed with was only the retirement costs now i'm doing pre-retirement and post retirement and government is 40% big are. it's unbelievable and that is why this bill is ining to cost a fortune. >> lou: i have not thought of it
7:03 pm
the way you cast it between now and 2007 when immigration, comprehensive immigration reform legislation was rolled back. 40% bigger in just about six years. it's incredible. there is something els going on that is fast a nate go to me. as you put forward this study, cato, the americans for tax reform, i'm talking about strong vibrant voices. the club for growth, you go through it and americans for tax reform and the american action forum, doug's outfit, they say you are wrong and couldn't be wronger. he has numbers. instead of what you are concludi your reported it
7:04 pm
would reduce the dicit by $2.5 trillion? >> i sent six month months on this report. the methodology is about 30 pages lon any person can look at my detail of my analysis. mr. egan has a press release of study h might do. it's very difficult tossess what he is talking about because it's so hidden and minimal. one thing i can say about that is his study basically concludes thatn immigrant with an ph.d. and one with a fourth grade education h an equal effect of reducing the deficit in government. that is not only wrong but it's upid. the reality that a high skilled immigrant, one with a college
7:05 pm
education pays about $30,000 more in taxes than they take in benefits. low educated immigrant one with high school degree or less does exactly the opposite. thoh will take about $30,000 more in benefits than they pay in taxes. the essence of this bill is saying that it's going to take 11.5 million illegal immigrants that on average education of tenth grade and giving them access to 80 different welfare programs, obamacare which is going to cost about $28 billion a year for them and sial security and medicaid and somehow those individuals are going to pay more in taxes than they take out benefits. that is ludicrous. i have yet to find anormal american that really believes an americanith tenth grade
7:06 pm
education pays more in taxes. in reality they will get about $4 infgs for every dollar they pay in tes. overall the eenditures over the course of their lifetimes will be or $9 trillion. they are going to pay about $3 trillion in taxes. every kind of taxes they pay but the net costo the u.s. taxpayer is about $6 trillion. about $120,000 for each upper class family. >> lou: there is something that hasn't changed since 2007. i do get an answer, if i ask you a question. good talking with you. i had some other questions. cavuto tells me what to do. good to talk with you. our next guest says immigration reform could invigorate the economy. higher rate of groh, more money per person in the workplace and budget reduction
7:07 pm
benefits. we're talking about a lot of it. joining me is the former director of the budget office, douglas egan. good to have you here. you conservatives, you guys are a tough lot. you guys got a battle raging over your forecast. how it could be that all of you would go after your own version of reality that seemingly had been kind of settled? >> i don think there is internal battle as most conservatives believing in the power of markets and growth. heritage fountion has gotten a lot of kritd sivm. but what they understand immigration reform as potential that improve the quality of the llbor force, allows us to meet somee of our growth needs. >> lou: robert rector and it is
7:08 pm
your response to his response. here is robert. >> egan has number, in fact of what you a concluding in your report, he says it would reduce the deficit by $2.5 trillion. >> i spent six months preparing this report. it's about 80 pages long. the appendix it describes the methodoly of what i did is over 30 pages long. anybody can look in every detail of my analysis. mr. egan doesn't have a study or report. he has a press release about a study he might do. he has provided about a page d a half of information. >> lou: how do you respond to that? >> well, i say brevity is the soul of wit what we looked at was the
7:09 pm
difference between the typical immigration scenario and what e census called a high scenario. we reported the facts on labor force participation, higher than native born, business start-ups by immigrants, higher than the native born. then it's just arithmetic. >> lou: let me ask you something. what is the correlation between, cleg degrees and advanced degrees and employment levels. is there one? >> there is is no question as your education is up, you unemployment go down and skills are at a premium. >> lou: so wh you have 11 million immigrants, the number beingsed, and more than half of them don't have hi school degrees why does your confidence
7:10 pm
level rise so much? >> here is the thing that the heritage study does. we have the 11 million and jumps the conclusion that all 11 million will remain here when big chunk of them will not qualify for legal status. they will be low wage workers but when you looat the details they get high social security benefits. the system giv low benefits to low wage workers, high benefits to high wage workers. it's how they did it. >> lou: i love the way he puts you down for being two pages and -- let me turn to another aspect of this. you think there will be fewer people thateek citizenship over the course of years ahead.
7:11 pm
what is that number? >> the key here out of t 11 million there will be some that qualify for status and some who don't. if you have a felony or misdemeanors. we were predicatedot on those folks, ours is predicated on the new immigration numbers and first time switching our system away from family unification and toward economic merit. that is e key part of this bill. that should be the fus. >> lou: let's get this big done and let's get rational? >> i wish honestly we could pick and choose on the issues. the reality is we have one bill and that is the bill we analyze. >> lou: it's tough for me, i've been doing this for a while -- i've covered this for decades. >> we have been here before.
7:12 pm
>> lou: but have a difficult time understanding where people get their numbers. i have confidence of the numbers restrictionnor the border advocates or bringing in 11 million illal immigrants is the solution to adding population growth to the equation for economic growth. i don't think enough people are beg honest enough. a lot of folks are arguing about here, is whether or not the only way to save the economy is to add a unch of pple. you think that is an unfair statement? >> i think there are two things about that. 11 million are already here. that is not who we are bringing in. native pop laying has a low birth rate. -- population has a low birth rate. that is what we should choose. >> lou: douglas, thank you very

7:19 pm
understand your strengths and weaknesses and do homework on jobs and which jobs are a good fit. that sounds simmle, but most people struggle to do one or more of those things. >> lou: as you look at the road map, as kaplan puts it to reaching your potential, it's simple world in terms of career, you are measured by money. the feedback is straightforward? >> no. i used to give this talk. i still havvn't met a business person yet that doesn't become successful by adding value to a customer or a client. you've got to add value. you've got to build distinctive. you've got to be greatt certain things. you can make money for a year or
7:20 pm
two but not over a sustainable period of time. and that i certainly true of wall street. it's true of everyone out there, what i'm trying to say to people rather than listening to what are what your friends are saying rather add js and add value and money will follow. >> lou: that is one of expressions i use, talking with my colleagues, we're adding value to the air. that is good advice. it's a pretty good idea. rob kaplan's book, we recommend highly. it's available in book stores and oine now. it's highly rank order amazon. we'll continue to flok this book mercilessly. good to have you with us.

7:25 pm
legalizing 11 million immigrants will cost taxpayers a net $6.3 trillion! i mean, that is over the coming decade. that is net number. why? according to heritage tangling the typical illegal immigrant housold is receiving right now $14,000 a year. and eve more in government payments that could jump by their estates to $30,000 if the gang eight plan becomes law. more than double. heritage is a force. back in 2007 the last time congress debated reeorm, they
7:26 pm
produced an analysis that amnesty would cost $2.6 trillion. over the next several decades. there is going to be great weight given to this study. they are going to create opposition. the club for growth and amecans for tax reform, two conservative outfits, jumping in to criticize the heritage study but they usually win these conservative battles. this is congressman, bob goodlatte they are in such a rush to pass the bill that some are drawing compare songs to the cram down of obamacare, you remember that which is clearly not an example of good government practice. but he is taking a sensible
7:27 pm
approach to immration legislation. he has introduced two smaller measures, important but smaller measures. one, angricultural guest worker program. thether would be the e-verify system which requires employers to verify through the government system whether or not a prospective employee is legal and qualified for that job. he says headlight introduce other measures in the weeks ahead. he is the incrementalist and thoughtful approach in contrast to others what would call a cram down effort on the part of president. jeff sessions of alabama, ranking republican on the senate budget committee. the most vocal critic. he says the path for citizenship
7:28 pm
for 11 million illegal immigrants is pure bull. he has an impressive amount of research to support his position. according to sessions and the staff of the republican staff of the senate budget committee, the gg of eight plan wouldn't give egal status to 11 million but more than 32 million immigrants. an additional 25 million visas in his judgment, that is 25 million. i'm so neat, usually. i was kidding about being neat. visas, 25 million of them. it would be granted in hhs view to non-immigrants and now we know that the senator's feeling because of the mounting
7:29 pm
opposition to the gang of eight plan. he is starting, reib reib is saying, why rush it? why not make sensible judgments? the question in all of this given the record of this administration and this congress and senate, will the facts matter at all to them? we'll find out. >> obama admistration has an enemies' list, conservatives under attack by the irs. jenny the cofounder of the tea jenny the cofounder of the tea party patriots joins us n you make a great team. it's been that way since e day you met. but your erectile dysfunction - itld be a question of blood flow. cialis tadalafil for daily use but your erectile dysfunction - lps you be ready anytime the moment's right. you cabe more confident in your ability to be ready. and the same cialis is the only daily ed tablet approved to treat ed and symptoms of bph like needing to go frequently or urgently. tell your doctor about
