Foreign ministers of Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras met this week to address concerns about President-elect Trump's plan to deport illegals, mostly those with criminal records. Their goal: Calm the fears of illegals, help them avoid deportation, and keep the flood of money they send home going.
Mexico and Guatemala announced plans to expand immigration services at their dozens of offices in the United States.

That’s not really fair. They did the work, and their employers paid them, so the money is theirs to do what they want. Nobody complains when rich Chinese guys come here and spend the money they stole in China.
Not a lawyer but if a government of a nation acts to loot the wealth of another nation, isn’t that an act of war?
Yes, but the parachutes cost too much so as a cost-cutting measure ...
They and their employers are breaking the law. “Fair” does not enter into this. Criminals need to have their ill-gotten goods taken away from them by the forces of law and order.
The only sure-fire way to prevent being deported is to leave and go home before January 21.
BS:
There are legal ways to come work here and NONE of them include bringing whole families over for free stuff.
That statement you made tells me you have zero understanding of the cost of even one family a year here.
Ok, so a Chinese family illegally comes here, the cost?
$15,000.00 per year per child pre-k through a Senior in High School.
That is $200,000 for one child. $400,000 for two kids.
My family of four pays $10,000 a year for medical with a total of $12,000 in deductibles first before we can use it.
The Chinese family gets free insurance 7 levels over mine with no deductible. They go an and get treated quicker because they can.
That is another $250,000 out the window for the school years.
Not counting the costs of crime...
Of our 20 trillion in debt, I believe we have spent between 3-5 trillion on illegals.
Most get welfare and run cash businesses not reporting income.
My plan: (1) Stop all aid to countries that refuse to take back even one of their citizens. (2) Slap a fee on money transfers to those countries - 1% if they are cooperating fully with our immigration enforcement, and 20% if they are not cooperating. (3) Block all trade in either direction with countries that refuse to cooperate. They will take their citizens back. Or else!
Pretty much nailed it.
>>Put them in a seat on massive transport.
>>Tether the chute.
>>Somewhere over Southern Mexico let them drift safely down in their home country.
>>Beats a catapult.
Nah, Trebuchets have much lower carbon footprints, plus they save the expense of a parachute.
The amazing part is they're forcing real Americans, at the point of a gun, to fund the invasion and ultimate demise of their own country.
Doubtful that would help. If you tax wire transfers they will just send it by mail.
"The average remittance sent to Mexico in 2015 was $292.00"
A small, 1% or 2% "fee" on remittances should be enough to pay for a very nice wall and would still be cheaper (and safer) than sending bundles of cash via Fedex.
It is true that many countries have refused to take back their citizens.
Our option, which Hillary refused to use, is to refuse to issue any visas to those countries.
Trump has stated many times that he will refuse to issue visas.
He also promised that a country will only make the mistake of refusing one time.
im not just looking to build a wall, I think we need to stop the cash drain as well. that money needs to stay in the US and be spent in the US to provide jobs in the US
“They did the work, and their employers paid them, so the money is theirs to do what they want.”
They came here illegally and impoverished Americans by taking their jobs.
They must forfeit all assets, wherever located and however gained, right down to their last pair of socks and underwear, and may they burn in Hell for all eternity.
Illegal aliens cost the US over $100 billion a year in government services ranging from housing, food stamps, schooling, and medical care to imprisoning them. We could deport them all and build the wall for less than we spend on them in a single year.
“Nah, Trebuchets have much lower carbon footprints, plus they save the expense of a parachute.”
Make them walk to the Mexican border, picking up trash and cutting weeds as they go.
If Mexico tries to stop them from crossing the border, let the Marines take care of it. We need a five-mile buffer zone south of the Rio Grande anyway.
“Large reason why they don’t want their people coming back.”
Yes, plus then they have the welfare costs associated wth these people themselves. Time for President Trump to start closing these multiple offices here. Mexico can have an embassy in DC and a couple of consulates, but that’s it.
>>Doubtful that would help. If you tax wire transfers they will just send it by mail.<<
I respectfully disagree. Most Mexicans and other 3rd worlders do NOT trust the mail. They still drive from place to place to pay their bills rather than put a check in the mail.
Electronic transfer is the ONLY way they will handle money.
