The national median has put every single person in the same basket and doesn't differentiate between a single guy/gal vs a 4 person household.

So?
I'm not being facetious -- you seem to be implying that a household with one or more children should be viewed differently than a household with no children. If that is indeed your opinion, why do you feel this way? For educated professional adults with easy access to birth control, having children is a lifestyle choice. Why should a couple who chooses to spend a portion of their income on child-raising expenses be classified differently from a couple who chooses to instead spend that money on other items (vacations, luxury items, retirement savings, charitable donations, whatever)?

When you have illegal immigrents not paying taxes and receiving benefits like medicade for their children there is a problem with the entire system.

How much money is being spent to provide government services to illegal immigrants and their American-born children? If you were somehow able to magically eliminate 100% of this expense, would the deficit problem be solved? If not, how much savings would be realized? I don't have statistics to back me up, so take this claim with the appropriate grain of salt, but I think pointing the finger at illegal immigrants is just looking for a boogeyman and is not seeing the forest for the trees.
