The Coyotes charge $8,000 to $10,000 (??) toll per trespasser crossing the border.
These are supposed to be poor oppressed peoples from dirt poor Central America countries.

Just WHO is fronting the cash for 50,000 to 75,000, or more, trespassers to cross the border????

One of the least talked about issues re this crisis and our relationship with these countries is remittances. International migrants in the US send back to their home countries $123 billion a year. This includes $23 billion to Mexico, $4.4 billion to Guatemala, $3.6 billion to El Salvador, and $2.6 billion to Honduras.

These countries have a vested interest in exporting their citizens abroad so they can get more money back in remittances, which dwarf any foreign aid they get from the US. And this money is not being spent in our economy.
