xparasite9 Wrote:200 billion over five years. that's 40 billion per year. to deport 7people costing us 100 billion per year. yeah idunno I think it'll work out pretty good.
In 2010, the Annual budget of the department of homeland security was $55.1 billion per year.
You'd have to raise an extra 40 billion dollars per year in order to fund this plan's initial inception, and then spend 17 billion per year according to their estimates to keep it running, and that's just for the deportations.
But you're only looking at one side of the coin, and that is, while they're funneling 100 billion away per year, is it ACTUALLY hurting the economy.

The answer surprisingly enough is no, because they have to spend the money they make just to survive here, and they're still taxed on their income, but, here's the kicker. Because they're undocumented, they're still paying taxes on their income, and NOT RECEIVING ANY BENEFIT FROM IT BECAUSE THEY CAN'T COLLECT WELFARE OR SOCIAL SECURITY.
Over 10% of the 2.6 trillion dollars in the social security trust fund was contributed by taxes on the checks that illegals receive.
Do you think that they just magically send all the money they get away, and somehow spend 0 dollars while they're here, living and eating for free?
The money getting funneled out of the country is hardly anything in the long run. You're just starstruck by a big number and falling in with the propaganda, typical conservative rhetoric has blinded you to the actual data that was available to you the whole time.
If you can tell me where that extra 57 billion dollars is going to come from, I'll take your responses seriously.
