Since Mexico is avoiding any responsibility for the steady flow of refugees and the inherent cost of providing for them, I believe that we should ban wire transfers from the US to Mexico and by any other means necessary to curtail the profit motive for allowing this to go on.
That was brought up a while back and someone stated that they would just find another way. And they’re right. The illegals would find another way.
1. Mail the money ... won’t be long before the Mexicans post office guy realizes this and not one package is delivered, without it first being torn apart, looking for cash. If anything is found, cash is gone, package tossed in incinerator. I’m sorry, we never received it.
2. Carrying it back home ... not feasible either. Once they leave, they’ll lose their jobs. Once the bad guys figure out that they’re carrying large sums of money, they’ll be robbed as soon as they get on the South side of the border. And I doubt the cops will just let them walk on by, either.
3. Someone from the internet will figure out something, I’m sure ... well, that’ll just be a different way to electronically transfer money and can be easily dealt with by the IRS and Treasury. Of course, the only way to do that is to deposit or transfer cash, somewhere and then wire it. So, if the initial step is tightly controlled, they’re kind of screwed. And, I’m thinking that not too many illegals, picking melons are that tech savvy. Then they’ll have to deal with their money being transferred digitally. Won’t take much for anyone to wait for the account to reach a decent amount, shut the site down and then walk away with a ton of cash. They’d have no recourse.
At least there'd be no language barrier!
