There is a way to make illegal immigrants pay for Trump's wall

There is a way to make illegal immigrants pay for Trump's wall
By Steven Kopits, opinion contributor — 01/16/18 03:45 PM EST

The president, and the Republicans in general, continue to twist in the wind on DACA and illegal immigration. Mexico still refuses to pay for the president’s Wall. In its absence, he has been forced to alternative ideas like raising visa fees as funding source. Properly implemented, that idea could be a winner.

Illegal immigration across the Mexican border is really a black market labor problem. Border jumpers can triple their net wages compared to Mexico, and earn almost ten times as much as they would in Guatemala. They come for the money.

The "great idea" is to sell work Visas.  This does nothing about the depressing of wages for natives.  I prefer taxing remittances.

Tax remittances

Use deportees to make the bricks that are used to build the:
- wall,
- the ICE and Border Patrol barracks along the wall,
- rail ways interconnecting those posts,
- etc.

Do we provide the straw for the bricks?

This sounds like a "straw man" argument coming.

If the straw is used for bricks, there will be less straw for the burros.

Dead and starving burros, all across the vast southwestern deserts.

Alas, the will arrive "Burro Care," which will provide care for all, burros and jackasses included.

It will flow to the FedGov to provide for the straw less burros. To feed, clothe and care for them. (Manger to Grave, so to speak)

Barack Obama will be recalled from retirement, not to disrupt Trump's Presidency, but to care for all of the displaced Jackasses, that used to work for him.

Brilliant, 13 dimensional chess.

I've been promoting "tax remittances" in this forum FOR YEARS now.

Say, 10-13%. On ALL remittances to ALL countries.

I'll go further.

Put a tariff or tax on ALL manufactured goods (or manufactured parts to be used in the United States) coming from Mexico to the USA as well -- which will self-expire AFTER the border barrier is 90% completed.

These two items will pay for the wall construction easily.
