I wish more of those countries South of the Border here having that kind of economy, we'd see fewer Illegals coming here.

EXACTLY, Nothing But A Bunch Of Drug Dealer And Murders:
ABSTRACT
We make use of uniquely comprehensive arrest data from the Texas Department of Public Safety to compare the criminality of undocumented immigrants to legal immigrants and native-born US citizens between 2012 and 2018. We find that undocumented immigrants have substantially lower crime rates than native-born citizens and legal immigrants across a range of felony offenses. Relative to undocumented immigrants, US-born citizens are over 2 times more likely to be arrested for violent crimes, 2.5 times more likely to be arrested for drug crimes, and over 4 times more likely to be arrested for property crimes. In addition, the proportion of arrests involving undocumented immigrants in Texas was relatively stable or decreasing over this period. The differences between US-born citizens and undocumented immigrants are robust to using alternative estimates of the broader undocumented population, alternate classifications of those counted as “undocumented” at arrest and substituting misdemeanors or convictions as measures of crime.

A1C Medrick "Rick" DeVaney I think you're right. When I was released from the Army someone told me I had to have a driver's license or I couldn't drive. Of course I said watch me. I drove for 15 years without one and was the safest driver you'd ever meet compared to the pre military kid who racked up 17 accidents the first 6 months behind the wheel. (All my fault except one).

Isn't ot amazing what limited government and controlled, budgeted spending can do? Of course, American democrats can't stand to see the success and ignore it.

wait.... he reversed decades of socialism and the economy got better?
Surely he is doing it wrong. The only cure for socialism is MORE SOCIALISM.
