None of these morons ever asks what it costs to keep them here? Here's a WAG- 100 times that over the next 20 years plus third world status for the US after this new indigent class starts voting themselves big benefits and sucking off the government teet in earnest.

A serious wire transfer fee would cover a lot of that...

Oh, all of a sudden Liberals know how to add up the cost of a proposed Government program.

So? What happened to the money set aside for the wall years ago? That was most likely wasted.

Maybe if none self deport. But compared to healthcare, free legal service for alien criminals, costs of incarceration, bilingual/education costs, and welfare ? Are you kidding me ?

Only $166 billion?
Money well spent, that will pay dividends over the years in reduced crime rates, reduced welfare dependency, and better employment prospect for actual CITIZENS of these United States.

It’s a hell of a sight cheaper to throw them out than to keep them in. Only the most obtuse or the agenda driven among us would argue otherwise.
To: Rockitz
Eisenhower did it in the 1950s for almost nothing. This number is grotesquely inflated by the pro-amnesty crowd.

But think of all the JOBS it would create. Not to mention the savings to offset these costs.
In this day and age, $166B is a rounding error for Government spending, especially if its spent over multiple years.
That, plus many illegals would self-deport if the pressure and penalties got serious.

Donald Trumps immigration plan is huge in every aspect including its price tag. Think $166 billion. Baloney. Made-up number.
In any case, if the workers who replace them aren't sending money out of the country, how much does that add up to?

Its a hell of a sight cheaper to throw them out Especially if you use a trebuchet. You could actually make money on that; put it on pay-per-view.

The only time liberals care about cost is when it is a program they vehemently oppose.
