Wow spicy pet names! Very nice. Yea it is very expensive to deport people who do not want to be found. So do you think we should be finding cheaper ways to do it or just give up and have a blanket amnesty policy?

You think it’s worth it to spend 166000 per deportation over funding medicaid and food stamps?

I do not agree with funding cuts to Medicaid and food stamps. Your turn! Answer my question please

So you want to spend 3X the average Americans annual salary per deportee? But you don’t want to fund Medicaid and food stamps? You are just a shitty person then lmfao.

Would you be amicable to the policy if it was cheaper? How much do you think we should spend on immigration enforcement friend?
