In addition, the massive influx of illegal aliens have had significant impact on spending. Government assisted housing expenses, aid to dependent families, food stamps, free health care, schooling expenses, the list is endless, and has ballooned the national debt.
In Trumps case, you really do have to spend money to save money.
Building the wall, and deporting illegals that will then not be able to just walk back into our country, saves money from every one leaving.
Ending chain migration, and returning illegals to their country of origin is another, ending benefits for illegals will also prompt them to go home.
Side benefits of the wall will be a lessening of drugs flowing into the country, untreated illnesses that had all but been wiped out in our nation will be lessened, saving medical costs, crime will be lessened against our legal citizens, the cost of incarceration of illegals will be lessened, the list goes on and on, but the demarcation point is a completed wall and toughened border security.
Will people still find their way in? Yes, but in much smaller numbers. Lets not forget that we will be strengthening border security personnel, which can handle much of this, and other agencies, the other.
100 percent? No, not yet, but I would bet, better each year.
The cost of the wall is pennies compared the the monies it will save America over the long run.
You see...The Wall is working already, where built, and will work exponentially, when completed.
By that time, it will be ALL the Democrats idea all along, and they will take credit for everything.
Wait and see.
I agree with your thoughts there.
I would like to see an accounting of all monies spent on illegals.
