You could put them all in hotels for less than that, with the secondary effect of stimulating local businesses. Isn't that what conservatives are all about? Or is it only when they own said businesses?

No no no no. See, the anti-immigration industry works within new public management, meaning those contracts are already sold to our friends.. I mean given to the lowest bidder., whithin the standards we decided upon of course - which are very high, expensive standards. All of this chalks up to consultancy fees, renting fees, transaction fees, headlight fluid fees, and of course marketing. I mean think of those poor people in the marketing department, how much cocaine- I mean problems they have to deal with.

Surely you understand, that letting local enforcement and courts deal with the matter prevents us from actively exploiting- I mean processing immigration. We also have lots of help from various farmers around the country, who've had immigrants working on a bimonthly pay. Good that we caught that the second month in. But since there is no contract or paperwork, guess the immigrants just took up residence on that farm. For shame.

I'll tell you what, if we build roads to the farms and some other roads back to the borders, we'd make an effective process out of it. Whoop whoop! Free labour! WHY DOESNT ANYONE WANT TO WORK ANYMORE?!?!?

Damned avocado toast... why, if it weren't for all these hard working immigrants...

But the privatized prisons are local businesses too, right?
