I posted this question a while back in the Immigration forum and got a lot really nonsensical answers.
ICE reveals cost for deporting each illegal immigrant - Immigration Chronicles
And, if we figured out how, there's still the cost to consider.
Immigrant advocates today are strategically calling the $12,500 cost a “deportation tax.”
Department of Homeland Security estimates that there are roughly 11 million illegal immigrants in the U.S. If you do the math, that would mean it would cost $137 billion to deport all illegal immigrants. That’s pretty close to the estimate we reported last month.
Nonetheless, President Obama continues to go against the Republicans and deports them by the millions.
There is no one so penurious as a leftist suddenly confronted with the possibility of a) following the law, and b) benefitting the best interests of the United States. It is particularly amusing since there is no other occasion on which leftists can even be persuaded to consider financial costs on the taxpayers' dime, let alone view them as important.
yeah, track down, arrest, lock up, then deport 11 million people ... shit like that is FREE to taxpayers.
view that.
Keeping them here ain't free, either. Amazing how I'd rather spend that money enforcing the law than rewarding people for breaking it. Well, amazing to leftists, anyway.
