Some people think we should deport all illegal aliens. But this would require us to detect, detain and deport 12 million people. In order to detect illegals, we need a massive investigative force of immigration enforcement officers, much more than we have now. Then they have to go arrest them and find space in jails that are already overcrowded. We'd have to build new jails and hire hundreds, possibly thousands, of detention officers. In order to deport someone, each individual must go through deportation proceedings. Under the current system, there may be many appeals and petitions for visas. This will require legal resources beyond what we have now. The actual deportation would involve taking the illegal aliens to their home country, not just to Mexico. The physical process of escorting and transporting 12 million people outside the country is quite an undertaking.
So my question is...am I wrong around this? Is there something I am missing? Does it make sense?
