Illegal Immigration

[Amarok]

We need to enforce the immigration laws to the fullest extent.  Illegal immigrants risking their childrens lives dragging them across deserts would not be tolerated by US citizens if their own people did such things.  We call that child abuse and neglect.  

Considering the alternative which would be an even greater abuse .This just comes off as weak sauce .

But the inherent racism of the left is graphically shown when they tolerate such abuse by latinos, justified by their own personal gain (cheap salads) and mirrors their own bigotry against people of a different skin color. 

Yeah no us accepting children and their parents fleeing poverty and violence is not racism . You are just being absurd 

The left does not believe SOME people can be held to the same standard as white people. 

Bullshit 

The left believes its OK to put latinos to work in jobs white people dont want.  

It's better then them having no job and living in crippling poverty 

No consideration as to WHY people who can read and write at a higher than 8th grade education see how physically bad it is for them to ruin their backs for yuppie salads.  

Yes it's not great but it could be worst and again this absurd derp about racism is just that 

Go ahead and ask these various illegal immigrants whether they even tried to legally immigrate.  You can read it in the caravan reports.  Nope.  Not any effort at all to legally immigrate.

 Don't need to they don't have the time 

GAO found that: (1) illegal aliens in the United States generate more in costs than revenues to federal, state, and local governments combined; (2) estimates of the national net cost of illegal aliens vary greatly, ranging from $2 billion to $19 billion; (3) a great deal of uncertainty remains about the national fiscal impact of illegal aliens, because little data exists on illegal aliens' use of public services and tax payments; (4) displacement costs and revenue estimates account for much of the variation in the estimates of the national net costs of illegal aliens; (5) the estimates are difficult to assess because the studies do not always clearly explain the criteria used to determine which costs and revenues are appropriate to include in the estimates; and (6) the cost estimates could be improved by recognizing the difficulties inherent in collecting data on a hidden population, focusing on key characteristics of illegal aliens, and explaining more clearly which costs and revenues are appropriate to include in such estimates.

So an old ass report with questionable conclusions 

At the federal, state, and local levels, taxpayers shell out approximately $134.9 billion to cover the costs incurred by the presence of more than 12.5 million illegal aliens, and about 4.2 million citizen children of illegal aliens. That amounts to a tax burden of approximately $8,075 per illegal alien family member and a total of $115,894,597,664. The total cost of illegal immigration to U.S. taxpayers is both staggering and crippling. In 2013, FAIR estimated the total cost to be approximately $113 billion. So, in under four years, the cost has risen nearly $3 billion.

FAIR is a bias propaganda organization it's a sad day when you can successfully be owned by the CATO institute

A quick Google tells me:

-The US employs about 20 000 Border Patrol agents.  This number does not include non-field personnel.

-The USBP has a budget of about US$4 billion.

-The USBP operates (depending on how you count them) 10 000-12 000 vehicles.

-In 2017, the USBP either apprehended or turned back a little more than half a million people.

-The CPB estimates (hard to get exact figures) that around 300 000 people successfully and illegally entered the US in 2017, and that it has declined since then (so, it isn't 'thousands per day').

It that's not border control, it'll do until some comes along.

Boru

This is border control?  Some needs to come along right now.

Yes it is .
