Not sure if you read this in the Times Magazine but The Immigration Equation by Roger Lowenstein is an excellect dissection of the supposed economic fallout of illegal immigration.

It doesn't address the cultural or assimilation issues but at least the economic red herring doesn't seem so rational or factual for that matter. Read Kevin Drum and the comments for more insights.
