    If you just gave $1M to each of the people you look to kick out the majority would become exceptionally productive members of society.

        True, but think of the potential. With $1M in hand you could buy a modest house in most places outright, a decent car, and have enough left to make some investments, maybe start a business, go to school, have enough buffer to be a well established resident supporting the schools and shops…

        If these people could see further than the color of their own skin we could be using those funds to see society boosted significantly.

      Think about who is getting that $1M though. They are helping the people they like and hurting the people they don’t at the same time.

        Not sure I follow. If, rather than spend a mil shipping these people out they just handed them the money, they could just become legal citizens with all the rights and responsibilities that go with it. The admin isn’t looking to deport their friends.

          I’d rather give them a mil too, but that mil that it is currently costing doesn’t just go into the void. Someone is getting it.
