10.6B in aid has just been wrung out of the US government to make these people go away. Is that what this has been about all along--arm twisting to get $$$ ?Who is working to give all of these people asylum?In what way is my argument dishonest?Again you made the stupid and or dishonest argument.It isn't just border jumpers, though. The deluge right now, for the past year or two, of people seeking asylum has our system tied in knots. THAT is the biggest problem right now. If it weren't overloaded, we wouldn't have to send them into our country to wait for a hearing and we wouldn't be responsible for safely homing their children in the interim if they are detained instead of released.Between 2015-2018, four years by my count, the US gave Central America 2.6B. This year we will give them 5.8B.
My question still stands.
U.S. Strategy for Central America
Yep, more of the usual "let's just throw MORE money at the problem"
A) it wont work
B) we don't owe those people shit
C) a wall would be a more cost effective method of keeping illegal immigrants from getting into this country.
That is costing us a lot of money, don't you agree?
So stopping the flow at the spigot would make sense. I have nothing against a physical wall where it is shown to be needed. Trump said during the campaign that he would build it a lot cheaper than people thought. What is all this 5B demand coming from? He sure wasn't running on us spending 5B on a Wall. I'm sure of it.
Our system is overloaded for one reason and one reason only. We stupidly run people who sneak into this country through the same process as those who come in illegally. Trump tried to stop this and a Judge decided he has more power than a President.
IF people were told "you can not get a hearing unless you come in legally, meaning if you come in illegally you are simply removed from the country, then the system would not be overloaded.
That is a fact.
Who opened up sanctuary cities all over the country where they give illegals a place to live, pay them benefits, and give them free health care while the homeless fills their streets?
Democrats.
I think I've raised a reasonable question, but you're so partisan you can't consider reality--it's got to be twisted around to be the Democrats fault. That's pathetic.
