Stopping Illegal Immigrants at Border Must Be Just and Cheaper

Illegal immigrants to the United States are quite costly in tax dollars an in the quality of judicial services for those in the U.S.A. legally. Federal and state judges have a limited budget and for every addition to a court docket the simple facts of economics and quality vs. quantity apply. With the same number of judges and adjudications officers the fewer the number of cases that reach them the better the quality of work they can do on each case. Illegal aliens given the same legal protections as those in the nation lawfully degrade the quality of legal services ordinary people have.

An inner city judge may need to process court cases like fish as the backlog is great. Illegal aliens make that worse. When a judge has too many cases and too little time to spend on each one the justice given tends logically to be more inexact and unable to discover the nuances of each case and individual before him or her at the bench. That is bad.

So President Trump’s will to treat illegal aliens with fewer rights; the equivalent of treating illegal combatants with fewer rights than ordinary prisoners of war is rightly intended if possibly legally incorrect. The U.S. prison city already cost 89 billion dollars a year. The judiciary and law enforcement people cost much, and the cost of adjudicating and sheltering illegal aliens is high. With gangs on the increase in the U.S.A. it is plain that stopping illegal entry with a wall and avoiding all the subsequent social costs is a good intention. Summary deportation for those illegally entering the nation is a law that should be created by the Congress if it does not already exist.

It would be good to think that equal protection of the law actually worked in the United States for those here legally, and that it was a responsive and human justice system rather than one bum rushing citizens about and sometimes to jail for life because it is too busy with illegal aliens to spend so much time as it should on determining the resolution of important issues in the lives of those encountering its condign power, such as freedom, property and life or death.
