Every day, nearly 20,000 immigrants are being held in detention facilities nationwide, at an annual cost of $660 million, said Tim Counts, spokesman for Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the division of the Department of Homeland Security that oversees immigration detention. For one-fifth of this amount there could be a double fence complete with concertina wire between and another one-fifth would pay for another 1000 agents a year. Just a guess on the number of agents. It could be more but 1000 times $90,000 per year equals $90,000,000.

I agree, and most Americans who are awake agree, but fences to keep slave labor out don't pay off campaign money promises to the slave labor lobby. That's what once-proud America has been reduced to by our so-called "leaders". Sad, huh?
