> Immigrants take from the system but don't contribute to the system.

Unless you have proof they are committing tax fraud at a rate greater than non immigrants or are otherwise in leadership political positions directing allocation of resources in an unfair manner, I have no idea what could substantiate your claim.

As the child of immigrants, I would easily say the situation is the opposite. My parents always earned too much to qualify for subsidies, but did not have the white collar job to take advantage of tax advantaged benefits like healthcare and retirement savings that people fluent in English and usually non immigrants get to take advantage of.
