Boy, howdy, do I have an idea… this one’ll make your ganglia twitch…
We will inevitably have to pay big bucks to every family that was separated, why not make arrangements with dying towns across the country, where each of the victim families gets a million bucks to invest in buying a home and property in those towns.
Put the word out that any town can apply for one of the newly wealthy immigrant families, and they can be moved to their new, very nice homes, and they will bring an instant financial boost to their chosen community.
OK, call me crazy, but consider three things carefully before you go all skeptic on me…
First, these families are going to win a settlement, SOMEDAY, that is likely a given.
Second, if they are given the opportunity to resettle with their new fortune her in the USA, that money will go into these struggling communities.
Third, a couple thousand small rural towns would get a booster shot of life and cash. Hard to find any losers but Trump and The Freedom Caucus with this Big Idea.
