    Default "Tallying Trump's tab": The liberals suddenly care about excessive spending

    After years (decades?) of pushing huge spending increases and "Do it for the children" rhetoric designed to get people to ignore that they are plunging the country into bottomless debt, suddenly the liberals have decided that a spending proposal is too expensive.

    That spending proposal is, of course, Donald Trump saying he will make the government obey our immigrations laws. We can't have that!

    'Tallying Trump's Tab': NBC Suddenly Cares About Excessive Spending

    By Scott Whitlock

    NBC finally cares about government spending. The network that has been very friendly to Barack Obama (under whom the national debt will reach $19 trillion) worried that Donald Trump's policy goals may cost too much. Today reporter Hallie Jackson on Tuesday fretted, "The candidate known for his big money... turns out to be a big spender when it comes to his presidential proposals."

    Jackson lamented Trump's plans as wasteful: "Deporting 11 million undocumented immigrants estimated to cost about $138 billion. Taking back Iraqi oil fields, which would mean U.S. boots on the ground, $13 billion to $22 billion and repealing the Affordable Care Act may cost the government $137 billion in the next decade."

    Showcasing NBC's new-found interesting in fiscal austerity, Jackson complained of Trump: "He dodged NBC's Katy Tur's question about where that money to deport undocumented immigrants would come from."

    Over ABC's Good Morning America, Tom Llamas did not focus on the cost of the immigration policies. Instead, he yelled questions at Trump (who was in New York City for jury duty) on enforcement: "How would you do it?... What would you tell a child of an undocumented immigrant? What would you tell that child born in the U.S.?"
    "The social contract exists so that everyone doesn’t have to squat in the dust holding a spear to protect his woman and his meat all day every day. It does not exist so that the government can take your spear, your meat, and your woman because it knows better what to do with them." - Instapundit.com

    Deportation will quickly pay for itself when the country isn't paying for their welfare, health care, food stamps, day care, incarceration, etc.

    In fact, I think it'll go a long way to building the wall.

    Deportation would more than pay for itself by the savings it results in from leeching on the Federal freebie programs and multi-billion dollar costs to the states yearly..-Tyr

    They report in Texas alone the people "in the shadows" commit about 100,000 crimes per year, including about 500 murders.

    Rev, these are not just people who want to work here.

    Many of them do want to work here, and not commit crimes.

    But as you point out, some of them are here just for free stuff, and various thuggery.

    That's why we have a law that each person who comes in must fill out forms, get the usual background check, and then wait for approval. It separates the wheat from the chaff.

    Illegal aliens as a group have a much higher percentage of thugs and leeches than legal immigrants. That's WHY they violate our immigration laws.
