Biden’s Plan to House Illegal Immigrants in Hotels to Cost Taxpayers $72,000 per Border-Crosser: Report
The Epoch Times ^ | March 25, 2021 | Tom Ozimek

In a fresh twist on the Biden administration’s decision to house illegal immigrants at hotel facilities, crunching the numbers on the $86.9 million that is set to be spent on 1,239 beds shows that the cost to U.S. taxpayers will be nearly $72,000 per border-crosser housed.

“That works out to $71,666.67 per migrant, paid by your tax dollars, meaning that you are now a co-conspirator to one of the largest smuggling schemes in history,” wrote Andrew Arthur, a fellow with the Center for Immigration Studies, a conservative policy research nonprofit.

So now border "jumpers" are called "crossers". Even by the not-so-mainstream media.

Meanwhile “YOU” may have received a $1400 check and get stuck with the whole bill.

America is being destroyed from within.

Think of what we could do with the money being wasted on these illegals, who will soon be on welfare for life once they are released into the country.

The $72,000 per person being wasted on a couple of months of temporary shelter for illegal border jumper equates to the funding for a 4 year college education for an at risk, inner city teen

We have gone insane as a country

This is what Trump & the Republicans should be banging the drum on every second of the day.

Every illegal alien pretending to be a refugee is an expense of tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars to the US tax payer PER YEAR! All for the benefit of low wages for Bog Business & new voters for the Democrat party!

So each each invading barbarian gets gets more than twice the US median income in money and services?

Sorry. At that point these invaders should get a bullet in the head if they cross the border and the approaching convoys should be strafed by A-10s and AC-130s.

When Irish Immigrants Weren't Considered 'White'

"The struggles of Irish immigrants were compounded by the poor treatment they received from the white, primarily Anglo-Saxon and Protestant establishment. America's existing unskilled workers worried they would be replaced by immigrants willing to work for less than the going rate. And business owners worried that Irish immigrants and African-Americans would band together to demand increased wages."
