5/9 Filling the jail cells American's don't want to fill.
Feds pay $5.8 billion to jail criminal aliens
http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=44184
\_ Do you mean Americans want to leave them free, or kick them out of
the country?
\_ That is kinda the problem. Sent them to Mexico, they just
walk back, or pay to put them in jail and pay for them.
\_ When USSR existed, it had the longest border in the world
and not even a fly could cross it.
\_ interesting. I'd guess that's because if left open, vast
amounts of people would have fled (bad for economy);
whereas, w/ the US, porous borders are places where
people enter (good for economy) ... so less incentive
to expend the large sums of money needed to guard them
\_ Do you think that's more expensive than trying to deport them all
and keep them out? |

| www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=44184 The report by the General Accounting Office the investigative arm of Co ngress shows the number of criminal aliens in federal prisons increase d from about 42,000 at the end of 2001 to about 49,000 at the end of las t year. The majority of criminal aliens were identified as citizens of Mexico. In addition, state prisons in fiscal 2003 housed about 74,000 criminal al iens. About 80 percent were in just five states -- Arizona, California, Florida, New York and Texas. Also, about 147,000 criminal aliens were jailed in 698 local jurisdiction s that received SCAAP reimbursement in 2003. About 30 percent of those criminals were in five municipal and country ja ils -- Los Angeles County, California; Federation for American Immigration Reform showed Texas' i llegal immigrant population is costing the state's taxpayers more than $ 47 billion per year for education, medical care and incarceration. The uncompensated cost of incarcerating illegal aliens in Texas' state an d county prisons amounts to about $150 million a year -- not including l ocal jail detention costs or related law enforcement and judicial expend itures or the monetary costs of the crimes that led to their incarcerati on. Center for Immigration Studies used Census Bureau data from 2002 to determine that the fiscal impact of illegal aliens across the nation was $10 billion. The figure was derived from subtracting taxe s paid by illegals from the value of services they enjoy. |
