re: Deportations aren’t enough we need to destroy them economically

Figure out now to regulate the Western Union system.
An/or ANY other means of sending money back to their folks In their country.
If they are “sending from the USA machines”, then they have to input identification that is verified etc…
And if they don’t have identification. They can’t send money down there.
That would put a dent in their every day life. Upon payday, they are all usually sending money back home.
Not sure of all the systems they have now & how it easy/hard it would be to enforce it on the “money transfer companies”, but have Congress pass some regulation that mandates the companies to “e-verify” type of situation.
If they can’t send it back home, that causes major problems for most.

If Trump's deal with El Salvador goes through, you better believe people will be self-deporting. Because having nothing in Mexico is 100 times better than being in prison in El Salvador.
Your garden variety Mexican illegal won't be deported to El Salvador man. That's not gonna happen. In fact, I'll believe El Salvador takes any illegal that isn't their own when I see it.

There's no line. They'll hire school kids and part time college kids. Ex cons and people who just want a job. The wages will obviously be higher.
The reason people employ illegals is not because they can't find Americans to do it. Its because illegals put more money in their pockets. That's the truth.

We have private corrections facilties in the US. It's not a stretch to pay another country to do the job.

No, totalitarian regimes ignore the laws they don't like. Constitutional republics uphold the law. If those officials deliberately obstruct law enforcement efforts they will be breaking the law. There is absolutely no reason to not hold them accountable for doing so.

Who's going to take those jobs?
We've got a few options for a labor shortage. One, we could stop paying so many Americans to sit on their asses. Surely at least some of those people would rather work than starve.
Two, we could issue work visas.
Three, we could do nothing and let the businesses themselves adapt. If they were making it because they were paying slave labor wages, they may not survive it, but is that really a big concern of yours? You really want to go to bat for Big Construction, who has been exploiting these people for decades?

Not at all. Investigation tactics.
They asked Willie Sutton why he robbed banks. He said, "Because that's where the money is."

Since you gave no substantiation for your claim, mine's just as valid.

That was the agreement to keep them in El Salvador prison upon deportation?

Y'all keep posting stuff like this, but wiring money isn't the only way to send people money now. PayPal, Venmo, Wise, Zell, Google Pay, etc., etc. You don't need a SS card to open a bank account. You can transfer money from one bank account to another direct...you don't even need an intermediary.
Heck, if you can find a bank that does business in both the US and Mexico, you don't even have to transfer it. Just deposit it in the account and someone in Mexico who is on the account can withdraw it.

Not specifically, but these first rounds of deportation are criminals, and El Salvador isn't exactly being scrupulous about upholding people's rights.
They are basically just deciding that someone is undesirable and then just locking them up indefinitely.
They are even ignoring their own courts and judges. I was reading yesterday about a guy who was ordered to be released by a judge/court twice who is still in prison.

Alot of them must be self deporting. I work in Odessa and it seems like half the traffic is gone. Parking lots at grocery stores aren't full anymore.

Well, and they don't complain endlessly and want to report stuff to HR endlessly and claim racism, sexual harassment, cry "nobody here appreciates me" endlessly.
They are cheaper and WAY easier.

That will work out great. Sink the global economy just to punish people who werent responsible. Your own government paid for and helped arrange for these immigrants. Thats who needs to be punished. Those "bills no one ever read" Sinking latin America will have profoundly negative effects on our economy.
Let see since the 2000s will the flood of illegals
-Wages stagnated
-Housing increased
-Housing quality decreased
-More young men are unemployed than ever
- Our medical system are being overwhelmed and we don’t have funding to keep up
America is more than a global economy we are a nation of people who fought to have a decent quality of life we aren’t a gdp number.

Florida did this and just simply asked the question and it halved the number of illegals in hospitals
