Hi Maggie. If there actually was a company with the ability to fill this contract and i’m very doubtful of that, the size of the contract would be huge.
At $20 a day per child, a number i bet is way way low, it’s 1.3 million per day. Thats over 400 million per year. A winning bid would likely be closer to $50 per day or a cool billion. Of course i might still be low.
You need more zeros. You can’t buy 8 hour daycare for 20 bucks a day. And look at the services that would have to be provided 24-7. My first guess was 200$/day and on reflection it would have to be 500 $/day. The bidders, if there is more than one, would have to be one of the solar power scam outfits that went broke kicking back campaign money to the Kenyan. Besides the election scam implications this is another dirtbag kickback scheme to fund demokrats. Don’t assume the program would be run on the up and up. Minimum care and maximum kickback would be the first page of the required operating manual.
And by the way-—these kids ain’t walking from central America. The Mexicans are letting them ride trains across their southern border all the way to ours. I’ve been seeing news stories on this for months. ABC even tracked a couple of teenage boys to our border and asked them to get in touch if they got across.
This is way too big a program to not be a budget line item. Unless DHS is stealing from another agency it has to be there for all to read——right after we get thru reading the ACA. 500 dollars/day times 65K kids times 5 years should be enough money to fund the dim party until the second coming.
