11 Million De-Migration?

Listening to Mr. Trump's pronouncements, yesterday, my logical mind at once began contemplating the obvious, in response to his mass-deportation program.

How and where would the government find "holding camps"  (not to call them concentration camps)  to gather those illegal aliens ready for deportation?  They would have to be housed and fed, after all, until their turn for a flight came.

Why should the government (the taxpayers) pay for, and make available airplanes, flying 11 million illegal aliens to Mexico?  Mr. Trump's single private airplane, or even Air Force One, would of course take decades to accomplish this; the Air Force's military planes must remain on alert for security reasons... So, should the aviation industry, perhaps, now go into overtime producing larger and better transport planes? Good for job creation?

My mind pondered late into the night, but questions kept popping up in the attempt to find THE  most efficient means to accomplish such impulsive and very BIG decisions by our, currently leading, and potential "Leader of the First World".  I shall pay close attention to more detailed proposals by Mr. Trump, or any other candidate among the large pack. Several contestants are showing interest in this novel idea, seem to have been inspired by Mr. Trump's support among Republican voters, and have been echoing his vision, too. ..
I wonder....

  1. Interesting focus on migration these days, here and in Europe as people are forced to move north from troubled lands to the south... In reality, the movement into the US has slowed while in Europe the movement of people is reaching crisis levels.

    Keep posting your thoughts, B (M1)

    1. These waves of immigration we are witnessing now make me think of nothing so much as the breathing in and out of the movement of our human species on this globe. My Mother Elvira, Hedwig Bezille was born in Poland of German immigrants. Her parents followed a wave of immigrants from the Elsass-Lorraine Region into Poland. This was the wave of the Industrial Revolution that moved eastward in Europe. My Grandfather was one of the founders of the "textile industrialists" in Lodz. The family's manufacturing plant still existed next door to the large family home were I was born and grew up. These human waves of emigrants and immigrants are continuous, probably as long as humans populate this globe. Eventually perhaps even reaching other planets in our sun system. Our imagination has long envisioned such cosmic travels... stepping on the moon was perhaps just the first step of this endeavor.
