Billions of dollars are lost to US economy each year as migrants send money back home

Posted by Ann Corcoran on February 1, 2018

Neil Munro tells us about the losses at Breitbart yesterday:
Immigrants Sent $140 Billion From U.S. Back To Homelands in 2016

In fact, we have written many times about how these dollars sent back to Central American countries, like El Salvador, from people here on Temporary Protected Status literally prop up the economy of the country.

When you look at the newly released numbers, think about how Mexico and other south of the border countries (that regularly storm our border) could make a decent contribution to the price tag of The Wall if the Administration taxed remittance dollars flowing to those countries!

Why not a 13% tax on ALL foreign remittances to ALL foreign countries?

Use it to fund the wall, first and foremost.
Afterwards, it can be used for border enforcement and deportation expenses.
