Mass. to check immigration status of arrestees.

Imagine the money they will save when the taxpayers are paying for the legal costs associated with detention as well as the housing and transportation costs.

Massachusetts does seem to run in a constant surplus so no big deal.

I can't understand why it's taking them so long to collapse the system.  I'm wondering if they really don't know how to do it or we need 10,000 more programs in the other area's to do it. 

Unless people root out the social democrats, communist, progessives and big government dictatorship, you and your families will have to suffer the consequenses, even if they are not targeted towards you.

I'm all for what the system brings and hope for good intentions.  Our trust is governing from the middle.  Holder and George Sorros are infecting our system through case law and secret organizations that want to control your life.  If you are willing to take the chance that everything will be better for your family, then support what you think, on behalf of my family, or change your way of thinking.

I don't say much about the utalitarian style of what the cost is going to be, but we will always have these big, big government people around even if they are not in power working on something against your family and they should be tracked for many more years.

I have never been an advice giver, but beware, if you really love your family, the new war is against so called terrorist.  Be aware of the communist.  I think people need the control, but you have to do some soul searching at what expense.

The Holders. Pelosi's. Franks, Clinton's. Carters, McCain's, Bernankies are all products of the stateism that we have been dealt and even though it won't end up well if people continue to support these people, then may the hope and change be with us.

We are letting our future be dictated to us through the people that have been put in the power situations that has been revalated.

Please feel free to send your veiwpionts or concerns to this message.  I am not a blogger and I don't participate in other concerns.

Because, for the most part, it is already done. Either the police or the prosecutor or the defense attorney (in figuring possible immigration consequences of a plea or conviction). My issue is this is much ado about nothing.

It isn't the checking of status that's the issue here...rather...what do you do with that knowledge.

I suppose you have emperical evidence that supports your assertion that somehow, money will be saved when we don't have any plan of action for deportation.

Please be sure to take into account the following:

1) legal costs;

2) housing costs;

3) costs of returning belongings;

4) transportation costs;

5) plan of action and costs for any children remaining in the U.S.;

6) plan of action and costs for any family remaining in the U.S.;

After you have made an estimation of the above costs, please compare them to any expenses that you have referenced above.

I look forward to your research and response.

Thanks for the link. Perhaps next time, you can cite Faux News as your source.

As an aside, the deporation study does not account for costs of those left behind.

And it does not account for how this won't be a yearly expense. How much will it cost to keep them out?

Here is a source on the underlying problems. I don't love the publication but it does give a different perspective.

this is assuming the 14th amendment means anchor babies are actually citizens of this country

Actually, you (unwittingly) brought up an interesting point. Ilegals do contribute to their existence. They pay taxes and some even contribute to social security (which they never will receive).

Put them on a plane, huh?

What if the illegal status is an error? What about their family or people left here? What about their belongings?

Something tells me I already know your answer, herr Shane.
