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


And a border security fee. Fedgov fees us to death. No reason they can’t do the same to illegals to defend our sovereignty.

Sounds like a bargain.

Trump must see different numbers on how this will work....he just said it’ll be “a one year payback”.

Chuckle. Discount airfares and self-deportation baked into The Donald's numbers.

Real cost of the invasion - trillions.


It’s the oldest corportist trick in the book. Socialize the expenses and privatize the profits.

These don't measure the human costs in terms of crime and violence. From a 2011 reportCriminal Alien Statistics: Information on Incarcerations, Arrests, and Costs GAO-11-187: Published: Mar 24, 2011.

The number of criminal aliens in federal prisons in fiscal year 2010 was about 55,000, and the number of SCAAP criminal alien incarcerations in state prison systems and local jails was about 296,000 in fiscal year 2009 (the most recent data available), and the majority were from Mexico.

Based on our random sample, GAO estimates that the criminal aliens had an average of 7 arrests, 65 percent were arrested at least once for an immigration offense, and about 50 percent were arrested at least once for a drug offense. Immigration, drugs, and traffic violations accounted for about 50 percent of arrest offenses. About 90 percent of the criminal aliens sentenced in federal court in fiscal year 2009 (the most recently available data) were convicted of immigration and drug-related offenses. About 40 percent of individuals convicted as a result of DOJ terrorism-related investigations were aliens.

This report covered over 3 million offenses committed by these criminal aliens. 25,000 were charged with homicide. Hard to put a price tag on that. Criminal aliens have killed more Americans than the combined totals of our KIAs in Afghanistan and Iraq combined.

What’s the price for the American lives messycan savages take? What’s the price for the children that are raped by messycan savages? What’s the price for the chaos and mayhem they cause? A lot more than politico imagines, I’m sure.

It's definitely a war. The MSM and the progs just don't get that.

It costs almost nothing to make them self deport. Make it illegal to hire them, enforce it, and they go home.

$12000 to deport someone???

How much, then depending on the seasons of the year, to drop them off in the bayous of Southwestern Louisiana?

Easier said then done. Yes, shut off the job magnet. But there is an underground economy and a familial network that will sustain many of them. We need to enlist the help of state and local enforcement to enforce our immigration laws. Every traffic stop or minor crime can be used to catch and deport them. No more revolving door. No more catch and release.

Easy peasy,

1. Make it a serious felony to employ an illegal.

2. Offer a $500 (per illegal employee) bounty for turning in employers who hire illegals. And yes, employ local LEOs in enforcement.

3. Make it impossible for illegals to have a driver’s license, register a vehicle, etc.

4. Prohibit illegals from getting any benefits.

Those four actions would self-deport 90%+ of illegals. If an illegal lives with a family member and doesn’t work, they’ll probably slip through, but how many of those are their?

Correct. Attrition thru enforcement.
