Every year the 89,000 employees of the Internal Revenue Service attempt to enforce the tax laws for well over 200 million taxpayers. Obviously this is impossible and taxpayers could ignore the law with near impunity. Yet, they don't. Somehow the IRS persuades the vast majority of the taxpayers to pay up.
If the IRS said that it would be inhumane to prosecute tax scofflaws because they have children that need to eat and that most tax scofflaws are good people who have run into hard times, what would happen? What would happen is that the population of tax scofflaws would explode. The tax scofflaws would become shrouded in moral legitimacy. Any attempt by the IRS to step up enforcement would be seen as brutal oppression against good people.
The IRS uses a carrot and stick approach. The tax withholding is rigged so that most people will get a refund. That encourages them to file their taxes as soon as possible so as to get the tax refund. People who aren't toeing the line get threatening notices in the mail generated by a computer.
The IRS has plenty of helpers in the private sector. For example the "Tax Resolution Institute" says this:
"If you have received a Notice of Intent to Levy by the IRS, you only have 21 days to act. During the course of the 21 days, all of your financial accounts levied will be frozen. You will be unable to access your money. After three weeks, your bank and/or the other organizations in your financial network will be forced to send your money plus interest to the IRS to cover your tax debt. Once the IRS has your money, it is gone, and the chance of getting any of the funds returned is slim to none.

To my estimation, the TSA harasses, belittles, oppresses and intimidates hundreds of thousands of air passengers each day. I see no reason why this oppressive regime cannot be applied to invading illegals any differently.
It takes national will and determination, that’s all.
Just ask elio Gonzales from Cuba.
If the IRS can find the addresses of illegals to send them billions in tax “refunds”, we can certainly use IRS data to find them, load them on a bus/plane/train and ship their asses back to their third-world @#$!holes!
Bill Clinton deported some 11 million illegals during his two terms. How did he do it, and how much did it cost?
12 million?
Try 54 million.
I’m getting tired of the Kenyan’s “Si, se puede” Party ALWAYS saying WE CAN’T do something. We’re AMERICANS not Kenyans. WE can do anything.
Self Deportation is the answer. It’s easy and it works.
Trump:
The day I am sworn in I will order the Treasury Department to immediately conduct an Audit of Payroll Tax Returns for the last 3 years, All returns with NO MATCH Social Security numbers will be considered FRAUDULENT and Criminal Proceedings will commence IMMEDIATELY for EVERY BUSINESS IN AMERICA that filed a FRAUDULENT PAYROLL TAX RETURN.
They will ALL BE GONE before the Election
All good ideas but it ignores the fact that the excuse making is a ruse. While the conservatives try to come up with better answers the left just laughs behind their backs. The left doesn’t believe there is a problem to be solved, they see this as desirable, so they offer these idiotic excuses as red meat to the right.
While the right devours the meat like a bunch of rabid dogs the left sneaks around them, enters the house, closes and locks the front door, walks to the back door and opens it up to anyone who will become a beholden constituency to the Dim party.
Understood. I’ve long believed we should stop treating Liberals and Democrats as honest American ideological opponents and treating them as what they are - traitors the Constitution of the United States. They are our enemies.
Eisenhower proved that if you actively deport illegal aliens, for every one that you catch and deport 10 more will voluntarily leave to avoid being deported.
Obama proved that if you do not deport illegal aliens then millions more will pour in over the border.
Not to mention that at least 80% of TSA employees have IQs in the mere two digit range. Yet they are still highly successful in making sure nobody boards a plane with over 3.5 oz of hand lotion or shampoo.
It says a lot about an organization that does not screen for convicted felons applying for jobs.
Be honest now....how many citizens would pay for infrastructure i.e., roads, sewers, railroads, power lines, power stations etc. or schools, librarys or the Military if they were just asked to "chip in"....not many. A little coercion is necessary....granted there is some un-necessary strong arming and waste...over all taxes are a must to run a nation like ours. Trump will tighten up the waste and run the nation as it should be run...what he won't do is use AF1 like his "Uber", costing the taxpayer millions of $$$$ for the Obama entourage anytime they want to go somewhere.....
This POTUS and wife are a pair of feckless, nouveau riche frauds.....
The Donald knows this instinctively too.

I’ve always found the notion that the U.S. can’t get 12 million illegal aliens to leave to be little more than a red herring. I don’t think the U.S. even has to build some monstrous 2000 mile long border wall either much less employ an army of border patrol and ICE agents to accomplish it either. Simply remove the incentives for people to illegally come and stay here and they’ll leave on their on volition. That means no public education for illegal aliens, no birth right citizenship, posting ICE agents at hospitals known to be frequented by illegal aliens, going after people and organizations that knowingly employ illegal aliens, withhold federal funding from “sanctuary cities”, etc. Supposedly a million of these people left during the “great recession.” I seem to remember there was all kinds of talk about how Arizona was “suffering” with crops dying in the field for lack of illegal labor to harvest it after the state instituted policies to discourage illegal aliens, presumably they were fleeing the state in droves.
In short these people managed to get themselves here, I’m sure given the proper motivation they can get themselves out as well.
