You can try and twist it anyway you want, the fact is that blacks are a greater drain on society and have been for generations. A recent study showed that 90% of black children will be on food stamps at some point during childhood.
"High school drop out immigrants and their children cost U.S. taxpayers $92 billion per year as measured by total benefits and services received minus total taxes paid."
Where did you get this statistic? Is it government?

Those stats are from heritage.org
Did you look at the same statistics as I did? From what I see and based off the number of people, White people collect FAR more welfare than Blacks and Latino combined, the population difference is huge.
Of course those numbers don't account for the cost or percentage of illegals, because they aren't tracked correctly when you using stolen IDs.
The statistics also include "all" welfare, including kids - which is what "most" of Arizona's welfare budget goes towards, people under the age of 18, and includes school food. Speaking of schools..
Some other statistics, from the recent law..
...new breakdown shows that illegal immigrants take $1.6 billion from Arizona’s education system, $694.8 million from health care services, $339.7 million in law enforcement and court costs, $85.5 million in welfare costs and $155.4 million in other general costs.
Damn, they take 1.6 billion from our schools? And this doesn't include border patrol or national guard costs either? Holy crap!
You grossly underestimate what a burden on society is.. if illegals truly have so much drive to make a better life, they should do what we did and revolt against the their own govs, that's the only way to really improve things.
