We just signed a bill that includes nearly two billion dollars so we can house them, feed them, clothe them, and give them healthcare.
This is horrible, evil, and vile. They are immigrants in search of a better life, and we are throwing them into prison with no release date, and treating them worse than we treat someone convicted of murder.
Let me explain this in a way you might understand.... YOU are an immigrant. You are in fact British, but live in Czech republic. Imagine one day a new leader moves into office and suddenly you discover your citizenship status has change. (Don't say it can't happen; It's happening here in the United States. We have people who have joined the US military for four years and gone to war for us with the promise they could become citizens, and now they are being deported). Suddenly you get a notice that you need to go to court to secure yout citizen rights, and in court you are told you need to leave the country. At that point you can be arrested, and throw in to a jail cell with thirty other people - with only one toliet. You stay in prison for six months to a year until your court date. At that point, you are physically deported. You've lost your house, your car, your business..... Everything.
This is how we are treating immigrants.
Immigrants used to come to the United States and were greeted with the Statue Of Liberty and open arms. ALL of my original family members came to the US through Eillis Island. Now we lock them up and treat them like dogs.

Once again you get it wrong. The government may not have given them a home, but they still needed one so who pays for it?
Who pays for the food or do they work,putting an American out of a job, to fund their food. How many earn enough to really contribute?
Healthcare is provided if they have an accident, child, etc. So is schooling, prisons, policing, courts, etc.
Coming to a country to contribute to build a better life for yourself and your family is a good thing, if it doesn't mean a citizen takes a pay cut, the person coming ends up earning less and paying less in taxes or cost the country more than he contributes.
inking Ellis Island legal immigrants with today's illegal immigrants is a big mistake. 150 years ago America desperately needed more people. Today it doesn't.
Automation is going to make 10,000,000s of people unemployed. Then you can add Globalisation to the 10,000,000s jobs that paid well and raised trillions in taxes, moved out of the US.
As for my status in Czech. I provided the wages of approximately 20 people a month, both full time and models part time, then there's the taxes we all paid into the Czech Government, my money, except my pension plans, was spent and kept inside Czech. My private and British pensions are paid into my Czech banks. But if the Czech government insists on kicking me out, we will sell up and move back to the UK.
