The insanity continues -- why is the government (stupid question, I know) not just SEALING THE BORDER??? Yet we continue to pander to illegal, law-breaking criminals as if they deserved it....
More stats on costs of "cheap labor" ping.
Perhaps simply documenting them then transporting the illegal person (s) back to central Mexico. Sending them back is cheaper in the long run rather than incarcerate them in the U.S. for days and weeks on the tax payer's tit. Filling one C1-40 should not be a problem - whether Mexico would allow planes to land is a problem. However, those involved in drug smuggling should not be given parachutes.
"Help is needed for a variety of costs, officials said, including:
-Paying for costs to jail illegal entrants accused of crimes.
-Paying to respond to reports of crimes by or against illegal entrants.
-Alleged kidnapping cases, in which people saying they are immigrants report being held by smugglers for ransom.
-Accidents involving vans or other large vehicles carrying groups of illegal entrants.
-Recovery and autopsies of illegal entrants found dead in the desert.
-Picking up trash left behind by illegal entrants crossing the desert. "
Not to mention the murderers and drug dealers who don't go gently to the jail.....and Bush does nothing. Heck, he doesn't even admit what is going on.
Fine the illegals $500 (the coyotes $50,000) and have them work off their fine, as well as food and lodging charges, at the prevailing minimum wage rate - then deport 'em.
They want a better life? Let them start by cleaning up the place so it will look nicer and be healthier the next time they sneak across the border.
Thank you, La Gubernadora! Now the MSM has to begin to report on some of the hidden costs of illegal immigration - the coroner, for crying out loud? Who'd a thunk it....?
What people fail to focus on, is that services to U.S. citizens must be cut back an equal amount to provide the service to the illegals. Finances are finite. Spend more here, spend less there.
Google "Fox/Hurricane Katrina" and you'll get to read the front page of El Universal in which Vicente Fox tells all the illegals to feel free to access all the aid they can get in the affected areas because the Border Patrol won't be policing aid stations. He certainly doesn't want them all coming back to Mexico, and the aid checks will let them keeping wiring that $18 Billion back to keep his inept country afloat. So our citizens will have less disaster relief to divide among themselves because we have tens of thousands of illegals helping themselves to the FEMA and charity funds. The only thing on Mexico's mind in this crisis is helping themselves. What lousy, rotten neighbors we are stuck with. Just SHAMEFUL.
A wall would be cheaper and more effective.

Washington..... are you listening?
No more votes, no more donations to open borders politicians!
100% of illegal aliens represent a lawbreaker element.

What contest are these "entrants" entering? If it's Publisher's Clearing House, Ed McMahon can handle it.
