Summary
The U.S. military’s deportation flight to Guatemala, ordered by Trump, cost approximately $4,675 per migrant—over five times the price of a first-class commercial ticket.
The C-17 military aircraft operation is significantly more expensive than ICE’s commercial charter flights, which cost around $630 per person.
Trump defended the policy, vowing to continue deportations and warning countries that refuse cooperation.
The program, part of Trump’s national emergency declaration, has already deported hundreds, though some countries, like Colombia, have resisted.
You’re absolutely right. No job in the USA should ever pay less than minimum wage. Costs will increase, but so will the average prosperity. If we can manage to deflate the currency and keep more domestic products here in the country, we’re all better off.
You better be in the fields picking them veggies then.
Personally? No. But I’m also not currently unemployed. There are others who are.
Good for you for sacrificing others on your behalf! Selfishness is the most American trait of all!
Enjoy the leopards.
This is the funniest thing I read all day, thank you.
The only part of that which would actually happen is costs increasing.
The minimum wage which hasn’t been increased in decades and all proposals are shot down because it will increase the price of McDouble?
