Those $52 billion are not "shipped" out of America; they are payments for services rendered. American employers willingly pay the workers for their services. Foreign workers (legal or illegal) are just another form of free trade from the purely economic point of view. You can argue all you want against the SOCIAL problems caused by illegal immigration; but economically it makes sense IF you are in favor of free trade. If you are not, then don't criticize foreign workers and at the same time buy Chinese goods, for economically they are equivalent.
