Wrong! When they come here LEGALLY then they can get a DL. Deport them is the only way to deal with the criminaals.
Go for it. The costs to do so are above.
Since when has America been living on any kind of budget ? Money is of no consequence.
IT wouldn't cost much to make illegals self-deport. In fact it may even save money.
Simple make the following changes to the laws.
1 - Require all employers to use E-Verify. They don't, they lose their business license for 2 years.
2 - Any employer hiring illegals loses all Government Contracts for 5 years.
3 - No welfare of any kind to illegals. No housing, no Food Stamps, no medical. Nothing.
4 - Illegals will not be educated in the U.S. End the idea that we must educate anyone who is here.
5 - End Birthright Citizenship. At least one parent must be a citizen before a child is born with Citizenship.
6 - Confiscate all funds being sent to Mexico by illegals. Since they are here illegally, they are working illegally, earning that money illegally. Under current laws, the Government can confiscate it. Use that money to prosecute those who give aid to illegals.
7 - Any City that harbors illegals and refuses to aid in their deportation loses all Government money. End of Conversation. You want illegals in your City? Do it without Federal Money supporting you.
See.. Hardly any cost at all to the Government. Illegals will self-deport.
