re: Sen-Elect Jim Banks Stuns Dana Bash with Mass-Deportation Plan: Not ‘That Complicated’

There are more than enough unemployed people in the U. S. to take the job the illegals have now.

The world is not this simple though. Half these lazy fricks won’t even work in simple air conditioned retail type jobs. You think they’re going to to agricultural towns and start doing manual labor? frick no. Now we can have a different discussion on entitlement programs but it’s not as simple as replacing a number with a number unfortunately.

Round them up

Get them out!!!!

She understands it but she just like all of the left ignore laws that disagree with.

I saw somewhere that Trump should consider putting large fees on money orders being sent out of the country. This is how they “safely” move their money back to their families. Make every aspect of being illegally in our country painful and you will suffocate them out. At least then they would be contributing more to our country rather than just exporting cash back to their country.

But let’s be honest.

There are some here that care NOTHING about their family back home. They are here for the free dole.

We will have enough to keep us busy for a while just returning those who have been arrested or are criminals.

Name the jobs that 3.5 years ago were going unfilled and had such a dire, desperate need that importing 15 million people into country was necessary.

In 2019 we had a great economy, joblessness was low, wages rose in the middle class and lower class, we were a net exporter of energy, money was flowing into the country and the outlook for the USA was bullish.

The drain on the US taxpayer is between $150-$200 billion per year after whatever the 'benefit' is of unfettered illegal immigration. This is not a guess or supposition. This is from the Center for Immigration Studies.

To put the cost of illegal immigration into perspective, the US spends, annually:

$45-$50 billion on foreign aide.
$45-$50 billion on NATO
$55-$60 billion on staffing and maintaining our foreign military bases.

It costs more to have 15 million illegals in our country than to support our foreign support for aide and military. Hello? McFly? This is a HUGE problem.

And this just looks at annual costs. Over the life of an illegal immigrant each represents a financial drain of $65,000, which, at 15 million illegals, is just shy of a trillion dollarsbin gross dollars, not counting the massive debt on interest service from borrowing to pay for it all.

Imagine the strength of the US economy if instead of spending nearly a trillion dollars that we didn't need to. What would the economy look like? What would our debt be like? How would our taxes look? How would employment look? How would home budgets look? How would home prices look?

The answers to those questions all point similarly to one answer: this would be a vastly different country. It would feel like a steady course instead of like a rudderless boat lost at sea being moved around by the winds of change and uncertainty. We have the ability to chart our own destiny and should not give it away because we feel sorry for others who come from poorly managed countries.

I do see the logistical challenges of identifying and deporting, and the obstructionistic tactics the media will use to paint the actions to remove illegals as heartless and cruel. Life is tough and not fair. Thankfully, X will alleviate that, and Trump's new FCC Commissioner, and AG will put licensing pressure on the broadcasters to play fair. This won't be easy, and hopefully, a Republican House and Senate can pass meaningful, productive legislation to create a better, more streamlined immigration policy that brings in immigrants, legally, that can immediately contribute and not be a net drain on our economy.

Progs let em all pour through while pretending they aren’t sure what people are complaining about….then panic-stricken response that it’s an impossible task to send em on back over.

From a practical standpoint, I think illegals who are currently working for instance as pickers in agriculture, might be given the option to be documented and given green cards allowing them to continue to work in the U.S.

I grew up in a small town. Two main industries were farming and tourism. In my teens to early twenties, the only time we saw Hispanics in town were during the farming season.
There was a lot of talk about how they were treated, and how they were underpaid.
This is not fair. Not to them. And not fair to the locals who could have used those jobs.
Edit- There were also hidden and open hostilities towards the farmers paying them. In a small town like I was in, word spreads very fast, and opinions form even faster.
