Research shows most are not legitimate asylum claims.
“Despite the partial court shutdown during the COVID-19 pandemic, this year immigration judges managed to decide the second highest number of asylum decisions in the last two decades. The rate of denial continued to climb to a record high of 71.6 percent, up from 54.6 percent during the last year of the Obama Administration in FY 2016”
Printing money to spend on infrastructure, will have an ROI, that will continue for decades.
There is no ROI on giving billions of dollars in tax breaks for corps and super wealthy.
Well, I guess there is a very good ROI for the corps and super wealthy…not so much the rest of us.
We built cars an entire nationwide interstate highway system! We put trains out of business for them! We subsidize 20B of their fuel source every year for like 50-60 years.
And at a state level, we absolutely subsidize gas stations.
You also can’t say Trump had any credible infrastructure plans. They had a cocktail napkin sketch of throwing out $200 billion in “incentives”, for private partnerships while making budget proposals that would reduce infrastructure spending by even more than that.
Trump infrastructure plans didn’t die because of partisanship. They died because there were never any actual tangible plans.
The gas for those private gas stations gets 20B in federal subsidies every year.
You guys need to stop with this ‘why can’t the free market just do it…’
It’s idiotic.
The federal government built cars an entire, nation wide highway system. That created a rebirth in the car industry because suddenly people could get tom a to b faster. It helped put trains out of business, further helping the auto industry. And it helped US manufacturers sell a ■■■■ ton of cars.
Hey Allen.171000 illegals hit the southern border last month…the most in 15 years according to a story just reported on Fox. It really doesn’t matter if they are seeking asylum or not, border officials are so over run they aren’t even getting the court dates they won’t show up for anyway.
Damn if we only had a bog beautiful physical barrier in their way…oh wait we were building one and those #’s were way smaller.
But hey at least the infrastructure bill has done New Green Deal stuff in it!
Infrastructure Week became a running joke for a reason.
I think they did release one sort of plan the first time, which mostly involved the mass privatization of basically everything and it was too much even for the GOP.
