that’s about the cost of letting them stay for one year. I call it a bargain.

It is substantially more than that. You can also add into that remittances to the tune of $120 billion per year. That is money that illegal workers send home to their home countries in a sort of perverse reverse tourism. Tourists come to our country and leave their money. Illegals come here take our money and send it back to their home country to support their families.

If they are e-verified and can’t get jobs, won’t some of them leave? Obviously drug dealers and criminals won’t, but others might, right?

If you allow citizens to shoot intruders in their homes, why can’t citizens shoot intruders in their home country?

Biometric data/dna still bothers me if it gets applied to every citizen. I don’t trust government with that kind of knowledge.

There would be a million ways to make them all self-deport.

We can use all the money we’re going to save from cutting off federal aid to sanctuary cities. That’s no problem at all.

will cost very little to get rid of the illegal aliens...

why should we get stuck with expensive plane tickets...put them on a bus if need be...

cease the bennies, arrest a few, ID them with finger prints and photos and deport, a lot more will flee for the border by themselves...

Complete nonsense. It is a matter of enforcing our laws, take away the freebies and most will leave. The hardened criminal element will need to be arrested and deported but they are good at getting into trouble regularly so they can be dealt with as they are encountered.

They never want to say how much we will save by not having so many overwhelming our schools, social programs, medical, jails...the savings will be enormous. Not to mention jobs opening up for citizens.

Even if true, 400 billion well spent, compared to the f35 boondoggle.
