Regular congestion of organisms will ultimately result in regular defections.

Bullpoop, 95% don’t pay taxes and most all are attached to our welfare state.
The teachers union loses since in states like California half the kids might go home with their parents.

It would leave the wealthier poorer and the rest of America richer. Mass immigration only benefits the people who own everything because it drives the cost of goods up and the cost of labor down. That is why they do it,!there is money and power for those on top because they are essentially stealing our country away and selling it for a dime on the dollar.

We’d be poorer because on their way back to whence they came a lot of these people would steal things from us.

Not that they don’t do that already.

Obama deports them and then lets them back in. That’s not a good statistic no matter how you spin it.

Will it cost money to deport illegals?

Sure.

But as with anything else, you spend a little money in preventative maintenance now so that you don’t have to spend a lot of money later on repairs.

If this country really is getting rich off the backs of illegal immigrants, then we should deport them and be poorer. I don’t think what he is saying is true but if it is, then we are profiting from something akin to slave labor. Get rid of them and give the jobs to Americans. If that means costs go up, so be it.

Evicting immigrants is a four-step process. They must be apprehended, detained, prosecuted, and transported.

Getting them to leave is a cheap, easy, two step process. Step one, impose fines on any business that employs illegals. Step two, cut off all government benefits for illegals - saving the government money.

Denied any source of income they evict themselves.

They must only be talking sales taxes. They pay nothing else.

Nope, that's why the idiot author thinks it is so expensive. Simply (1) Make employers criminally responsible for hiring them, (2) Make it unlawful to extend any government benefits or privileges (e.g. driver's license) to them, and (3) Make it unlawful to provide lodging or to sell automobiles to them. They will leave themselves.

Laws are already on the books...they simply need to be enforced. You don't have to 'round' anybody up. Just hit their employers. No jobs and they leave. And it wouldn't take long...a couple of company presidents being perp walked for employing illegals will result in a huge number of unemployed illegals.

No problemo.

Trump wants to expedite them back.

Quote from the LA SLimes 2014 story about this very lie.

The vast majority of those border crossers would not have been treated as formal deportations under most previous administrations. If all removals were tallied, the total sent back to Mexico each year would have been far higher under those previous administrations than it is now

Housing would surely get cheaper for the average working American.
