Less than 0.001% get “turned back,” but let’s pretend that they all get turned back.

I remember a story on 18st from about 20 years ago. They were the largest gang in LA. Guess they have franchised and gone international.

Sounds like the IRS, the NSA and the DHS should be taking them out.

Yes they should. The agencies you named are the biggest gangs in the US.

I don’t see how the living conditions described are much worse than parts of almost all of our major cities. We should clean up our own back yard.

That could be called perpetual motion.

“we” give the people cash to live on, they in turn give it to the coyotes to transport them here, the coyotes turn them over to us and we pay them.

Go back home and start cycle again. and again. and again.

Sort of like the reparations cycle after World War I.

Germany paid reparations to the UK and France, who then paid war debts to us, and we then sent money to Germany to help rebuild. Eventually, it’s all the same money.

Kind of like the fairly new tale (I will ‘briefen’ it)

Guy goes into town and leaves a grand deposit with the hotel owner for a room. Hotel owner pays his laundry supplier the grand he owes him and the laundry guy pays his trucker the grand he owes him.
The trucker pays his ‘friendly female companion’ for past vists.
She promptly take the grand to pay for hotel rooms.
The original guy comes back and says “this isn’t quite what I was looking for and I would like my grand back”.
No problem....

Just like the government...
“floating money was used to settle most of the debt in the town, nobody profited, nobody lost and the guy got his grand back leaving everybody happy and ‘even’”.
