Cartel Put $1 Million Bounty on Sherrif Joe's Head

They could solve the problem overnight if they really wanted to, just pick six of the biggest employers of illegals and throw them in prison for a couple of years. Problem is them illegals pay a lot of sales tax that towns don't want to lose.

Or they could follow the **** law and seal the border and protect this country. There are many way they could solve this problem its not that hard.

Botto line - Nobody wants to lose the taxes the illegals pay. Seal the border? Nyet, comrade Al: Too much border, too few troops, even if we weren't spread a little thin right now. Don't forget that the 9/11 crew didn't come through Mexico.

I do agree that the troops would be better used on defense rather than being useless half way around the world.

I never cared much about Obama but this affects our country.

The Federal government needs to do their job and seal the border.

Speaking of assclown Sheriffs, the one that had a "firefight" with "five or six" narcos in the desert and was grazed by an AK-47 round or rounds, depending on the version, has lawyered up and is not cooperating with the State Police investigation team.


Never saw that coming.

I would change that to many don't want to lose the cheap labor. How many illegals are paying fed income tax? I doubt many, esp considering that 47% of USC/legals don't. Most fall into the 47% that don't have fed tax liability or are paid in cash. Heck, I wouldn't be surprised if there were illegals who got the EITC. Sure many pay FICA and medicare payroll (mostly on stolen identities), state income, property taxes, etc. You've got your other local & state taxes like sales taxes. But the notion that the taxes illegals pay cover:
-educating their kids (be they illegal or legal anchor)
-health care costs
-criminal justice system. At the fed level alone look at the budgets for ICE, CBP, BOP (27% inmates non US citizens), immigration courts. Then you have the costs to the local & state police, courts, jails, prisons.
-social services

is ludicrious.

If our worthless leader had any balls he would put a 10 million dollar bounty on the major leaders of drug cartels and
turn our military loose on them to earn a pay raise.

And if Obama did that, the Conks would complain about the extra spending.....

$10 million. He wastes more than that in his sleep.

"W" would have done that yesterday if he were still the president.

I'm not saying anything about what the taxes they pay covers. Just saying I live in a rural area with a significant Mexican presence in agriculture and that local small towns get used to operating on a budget that reflects significant Mexican sales taxes.

What's your point?

Alphie said if "our worthless leader had any balls" he'd put a bounty on the cartel leaders.

Was pointing out that we do have bounties on them.

Try to keep up.
