Migrants, paying $3,000-$10,000 each, can choose pay as you go or all-inclusive packages that include travel from their home, 'not just through Mexico', said the report........And smugglers also offer specialized services for children, pregnant women, and the elderly that reduce exposure to risks and do not require extensive physical activity, such as scaling walls or extended hikes through remote terrain, according to a new Rand Corporation report funded by the Department of Homeland Security.
It estimated that over 60% of illegals 'pay a trafficker' to get into the U.S....Whats more, it said that taxes charged by drug lords to human traffickers using their routes into the U.S. total $30 million to $180 million....The wide range reflects uncertainty about the number of migrants that travel northward, their use of smugglers and the fees they pay, said Rand.
the report said that there is no dominant type of trafficker smuggling migrants from Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador. Instead, it is a mix of crime lords and small operators. So-called transnational criminal organizations are not the main players.
We learned that human smuggling involves many different types of actors and that we could not credibly distinguish most criminal organizations' activities and revenues from those of other actors, including ad hoc groups and independent operators, that engage in human smuggling,

All inclusive = all the water you can drink
And use that money to pay off US politicians.
Maybe some of the Democrats are in this business too.
Sure would explain why they are so against the wall....
But, but, these are poor starving people who don’t have a dime to their name and have to have obama shoes sent to them so they’ll be able to trudge the last few hundred miles as they post selfies on their phones.
“All Inclusive”,
Like visits to the
“VIP” lounge at the Nudie Bar.
Biden makes the incredibly stupid and irresponsible comment that Trump is an existential threat to the US, but ignores the real existential threat of having on our border a Narco state that supports rapid demographic shifts in the US and encourages their citizens to resent and/or hate us.
We have long since stopped having leaders in the US. Now we have parasites.
And use that money to pay off US politicians.
Most certainly. And US Chamber of Commerce big-shots, too.
But, Im sure there are several Pulitzer-worthy MSM investigative journalists ready to drop this story on us...any time now...yeppers...
Who is paying?
Yep. Ask any street level dope dealer.
Paying bribes is just parta da cos’ a doin’ bidness.
Rand???
A billionaire, leftist, Gates-esque, Ford Foundation-esque, organization itself.
Like all of these, have caused the world irreparable harm in quest to make it a better place, per their morality standards.
If I lived somewhere I could save up 3 to 10 thousand dollars I’d stay there.
Maybe some of the Democrats are in this business too.
Sure would explain why they are so against the wall....
No Maybe about it. A person would have to be deaf, dumb, and blind to not accept the fact that the Leftists in our government reap huge rewards in money and power by enabling this invasion to continue.
DEATH TO TRAITORS!
I don’t know how these people in poverty can come up with that money. Soros funded?
So...if these illegals have $3k to $10k to buy the trip, and new cellphones, decent clothes, and they appear to be well fed, generally...what the hell are they ‘escaping’???
This is an invasion. And, it’s being sponsored by the lefturds. It’s being encouraged by the ignorant traitors who have NO appreciation for this Nation or what it represents.
Big business.
It is really a pointless exercise to continue saying Democrat = Them, Republican = US. They are ALL in on it. The uniParty rules US. The uniParty wishes the border to be open, the border remains open.
Well you know the Left has thousands of non-profits. I bet more than one of them is just funneling money to these human smugglers.
Trump should have FIRED(should have been charged with a crime too) and replaced Lois Lerner with some conservative hawk that could take a look at NOGs and non-profits.
traffickers should be shot on sight
