Indeed. About 10 years ago when this "too expensive" B/S was being bandied about, two anecdotals, among many, stood out.
One was from San Antonio, TX where a green helicopter flew over a large tract of homes under construction. Rumor had it that "La Migra" was checking for illegals. There was an ensuing stampede out of the area and in some cases, people fled back across the border, leaving everything behind, such was the panic. It turned out it was the developer flying some investors over the area.
The other was from a nurse who read that article. She said that one Saturday night at the ER, things were unusually quiet, with hardly anyone in attendance. She went outside on a break for some fresh air and noticed a "La Migra green" van parked outside. She said the standing joke thereafter was that when the medics wanted a break from all the hassle, they kidded about getting someone with a similar-colored van to park it outside.
While La Migra might not be as feared as they were then, as many here have pointed out, even just the HINT of enforcement sends many running. Money can then be well spent tracking down the slowpokes.
Ding, ding ding... We have a winner!
However we would also have to stop the dems (with the full support of the Chamber) at the local, state and federal level form giving them tax payer provided support.
If them dems have their way they don't even need employment.
It’s costing us much more than that to keep them. The destruction of the trades and they accompanying wage suppression is but one aspect. There is not enough bandwidth on this site to detail the negative impact of the unfettered illegal occupation of this country, and the price will be paid in perpetuity.
* And if you even for a second entertain the thought that this type of situation can be prevented, please remember that this program will be administered by government types. Mistakes will happen, and far more frequently than a private enterprise would make them.
Repeal ZeroCare and reallocate the money. It’s a price worth paying.
The high cost of cheap labor.
I said it before; charge Mexico $2,000/mo for every illegal. And watch the Mexican Federales protect the border for us.
Well, aside from this being analytical masturbation on behalf of the government, if they REALLY needed the money to do it, they could get every cent plus some by halting payments to the 6.5 million ACTIVE Social Security cards/accounts of people older than 112 years old (of which there are 35 in the world)...
What finances?????
Shove them acroos the river, and if they attempt to turn around, shoot them for the invaders they are, period.
I have a better idea. Fill Mexican jails with American businessmen and politicians who continue to abet the free flow of illegal immigrants from whatever country. Harsh? No. Not nearly as harsh as marching on Mexico City and burning the National Palace to the ground.
Si, se puede !
We don’t have to deport these illegals.Just deny them the ability to get any benefits for themselves or their progeny and they will go back to where they came.
They don’t belong here.
The bottleneck is the small number of judges hearing their cases. You have millions of illegal immigrants being funneled through fewer than 300 courtrooms. Increase that by a factor of 10 or 20 and you cut the backlog.
American Action Forum is J.E.Bush et al.
20 billion a year to deport? In the scheme of things it is a drop in the bucket. I say do it.
Its worth it!! When can we start?

Deport or inter.....which ever is more cost efficient
enforce just the laws already on the books and they will self-deport.
Their home countries got them to self-deport. So why can’t we?
