US Government goes after fugitive aliens with vigor!

Giving up liberty for security - gets you what exactly? US Government goes after fugitive aliens with vigor! Hooray! At last! Sovereignty matters! Well, not exactly... Jerry Seper of the Washington Times is noted for his excellent reporting on all things dealing with border security or lack there of and he does not disappoint in his recent article, Manhunts swamped by fugitive alien toll. Swamped is putting it mildly and kindly. From Seper's news article:

"The federal government has spent $204 million since 2003 to hunt down and remove fugitive aliens from the United States, but it has shown little success in slowing down a burgeoning number of aliens now hiding in cities and towns across America. More than 623,000 fugitive aliens or "absconders" are loose on the streets of America, according to a report issued yesterday by the Department of Homeland Security's Office of Inspector General -- up from 331,000 after the September 11 attacks and 418,000 in 2003.... Coordinated through an ICE initiative known as the National Fugitive Operations Program, the teams translate to about 500 agents looking for more than 623,000 alien fugitives hiding in cities from Seattle and Los Angeles to Miami and Washington."

My next comments mean no disrespect for the ICE agents; they have to play the hand they are dealt and they aren't being given aces. Our government certainly is going after fugitive aliens (you know the rapists, the killers, the violent guys meaning to do us harm) with vigor. Five hundred agents - count them, 500 agents - on the trail of approximately 623,292 fugitive aliens running our streets. Yep, I feel safer. I do have a solution though to the need for man-power to track and deport illegals here whether they be fugitive criminal aliens, as in have committed crimes beyond just trashing our immigration laws, or just ordinary felons for violating our immigration laws. 1) Let's enact the Fair Tax - so everyone pays a national sales tax on anything they buy. That way the illegals get to support our government which is giving these folks so much at our expense and dictating that localities foot the bill. [This would cut into the money the illegals send back to Mexico but, hey, Uncle Sam will make that up somehow.] 2) Next, let's deputize all existing IRS folks to work for ICE or along the border as needed. Let those folks - unemployed as a result of the Fair Tax - help track illegals of any variety and, in addition to the new deputies' minimal salaries, let's give them commissions or bonuses for the illegals they help find and deport. That would have to be less expensive than the drain on communities the illegals are creating now - the "theft" through unearned services that our property taxes pay for. My money would be on the former IRS folks. They'd have the first 11 to 20 million illegals identified quick as you can say "scat cat". There are many ways to rape, pillage, and plunder. Our citizenship is being cheapened daily by our own government's policies - long standing not just recent although I am disappointed by the current "amnesty" crowd both in the White House and the Congress. As a nation, we are being raped, pillaged, mutilated, spindled, plundered, screwed, blued, died, tattooed, rode hard and put away wet, then hung out to dry. You name it, we're getting it. And now Obama and company are screaming for universal health care. Well, why not? The illegals have unlimited health care now in the US. The only folks who don't are the ones whose taxes are paying for everyone else. Good gracious! Take the time to read Seper's article. Oh, and according to his research, let me repeat this: the "government has spent $204 million tax dollars since 2003 to hunt down and remove fugitive aliens from the United States..." Hmmm - 623,292 fugitive aliens (how can they be so accurate) to 500 agents. Our government should be so ashamed of itself. The "new world order" crowd forcing United States citizens into the North American Union have no shame and no honor. And we are left to fend for ourselves. No wonder Hazleton, PA is fighting for its life.
