It’s worth it!! When can we start?
Yeah, costs rise when you treat them like VIP’s in a luxury hotel. Stick them on a school bus and open the door at the border.
On the other hand it would be worth every penny.
Refusing to enforce law is policy.
Let’s overcome that.
Once again the Steadman defense is used. If you can’t deport all of them then we shouldn’t deport any of them.
It’s not necessary to actively deport them all. Just enforce employment verification, and most will leave of their own accord.
Continuing to borrow money from China isn’t viable either.
Strawman argument. You don’t have to round them all up in a big expensive deportation initiative.
We can just change (or enforce existing) laws to make it more difficult to function here as an illegal alien.
Not giving drivers’ licenses, government assistance, or paying for education would be a start.
We could also pay for advertising in countries from which the largest illegal populations originate. The advertising could cite tragic stories of families ripped apart and children’s lives ruined because of the parents’ unfortunate choice to violate our laws.
I could suggest other options, but you get the point, which is to encourage self-deportation and discourage new illegal arrivals.
At what cost do you give up your country?
Whatever it costs we must regain the rule of law.
The rule of law is the foundation of our Republic, without it we are lost.
It is not necessary to deport every illegal alien. Once we begin enforcement in earnest many will choose to leave the same way they got here.
Certainly better spent than re-charging millions of EBT cards. Which the left does every week with a smile.
Deportation costs are just an investment in America. Liberals oughtta like that wording...
Start enforcing employment law so they can’t work and many will self-deport.
They track every single chicken, cow, pig, and sheep in this country. They can tell you which part of which field from which farm a package of spinach came from. They are in the process of tracking every single financial transaction for every single person in the US. They want to track every single firearm and even every single bullet. They are in the process of tracking every single car; where it goes and how fast its going.
BUT by golly they can’t seem to figure out a way to track illegal voters or illegal people. Bunch of damn liars who deserve hot tar and feathers.
A good start would be to block money transfers to Mexico, and to effectively seal the borders. What a novel idea.
Didn’t Harry Truman order illegals out to make way for returning veterans ?
First, these arguments always ignore the fact that illegals will self-deport if the laws are enforced and they can’t get jobs or free benefits.
Also, they fail to compare what allowing these illegals to stay in the country will cost us, which is undoubtedly orders of magnitude more than even if we bear the full cost of deportations.
The nation as we know it will not survive. DC does not have the will. The Chamber of Commerce/cheap labor crowd lust for cheap labor, subsidized by government programs. Powerful unions such as education want to protect all those jobs in special programs for this ill-equipped youngsters.
That money amount? That's just pain silly. It doesn't take into account (1) how much money will be saved in handouts to invaders and (2) how much more tax will be collected and how much less will be benefits paid to US citizens who will fill those jobs.
I can do it for a lot less.
1. Turn off the magnet.
2. No more baby (auto citizenship)dropping after crossing the border. With that goes anchor minors.
3. Everything you own - if you are illegal is confiscated with notice(fruit of a tainted tree).
As an aside I would like to see their numbers. I have slashed many a budget and I know that the numbers are not even close to real until their voices have risen by at least two octaves.
As an aside, welfare and food stamps would drop along with several other departments such as the department of corrections. That would off set it.
Simple solution: eliminate food stamps and use its money to deport.
Gee, that wasn’t hard at all.
Just cut off the freebies.
