More like over $5.00 per gallon, but your point stands.
So normal Europe prices from before this thing. It's up to $8.50 per gallon there now.
Are you comparing the same gallons?

1. You will be deported to your country of origin one way ticket; there is no picking and choosing here 3. If you are detained by ICE even if you do have legal status they will endlessly pressure you into singing away your rights, you will be lucky to even speak to you NGO lawyer because every few days you are shipped between detention locations. Even if you choose to self-deport you have to be detained by ICE and co…
Your number 3 makes no sense, if you have “signed your rights away” why would they move you? For fun? But let’s say that’s the case… doesn’t that just prove my point that if you are here illegally, that it make no sense to stay?
Sorry to clarify. You are moved around the country continually so that it is exceedingly difficult to get in front of a judge and also speak to your lawyer. This is basically torture to most people, you are then pressured and repeatedly asked (in some cases lied to) to sign documents agreeing to be deported
The definition of being "illegal" in the eyes of the law is not actually really well defined at all. It is pretty much a vibe check
Entered via a port of entry and visa overstay? "illegal"
Entered via a port of entry and visa overstay, but now you have legal status? "Maybe you are illegal"
Entered not via a port of entry? "You are illegal"
Entered via a port of entry with legal status? "Legal but you might get detained for several days"
Entered via a port of entry with legal status but you attended a protest? "Legal but the government doesn't like you so expect to be detained"
Born and raised in the United States but don't carry your passport? "Legal but expected to be detained"
Entered via a port of entry with legal status BUT you have a traffic ticket and a bench warrant out of state "Illegal and criminal! Expect to be deported"
Might I add that only one of these above conditions is valid for deportation and a ban and every other is a violation of your rights

Objectively, which is hard to say because I’m just obviously not in this position, but if I were in the United States legally and I’m looking at three options… 1. I take self-deportation offer. At Christmas it was $3000 a person, but usually $1000, a commercial plane ticket anywhere, and I can come back to the US upon following the legal method. I can say goodbye to people I can sell my things. I can do this on my ow…
"A commercial plane ticket anywhere" != the legal right to go anywhere Pretty much you go back to your country of origin Typically people take on the immense risk and challenge of leaving their country of origin to come here because their country of origin has really bad problems Those problems likely still exist or have gotten worse over the last several years due to (if nothing else) COVID further separating the US…
>A commercial plane ticket anywhere" != the legal right to go anywhere
Pretty much you go back to your country of origin
Most passports grant at least a medium term admission to dozens of countries, and long term to a few.

https://x.com/dhsgov/status/2034000845503693180?s=46 There is this promotional campaign on-going, it could be related https://www.dhs.gov/cbphome It seems to be an incentive for voluntarily departure
From an outside-US point of view, both of these links border on the satirical. The DHS one, with it's no-longer-funded/maintained banner, and the entire content, complete with the quote is just eye-brow raising.
I wonder if anyone did read through the accordian FAQs, especially this one:
> How will exit bonuses be issued to participants?
DHS is working with Project Homecoming partners on the disbursement of exit bonuses. Illegal aliens will receive the exit bonuses after they land in the country of arrival.
The delivery method will vary based on country-specific guidelines and regulations. However, no bank account is necessary for illegal aliens to receive their exit bonus. In most instances, illegal aliens will collect their exit bonus in their home country.

Yeah, like _that_ is going to happen...

I can't believe the official US gov posts these things. Between this, the CoD inspired war propaganda and Hegseth semi-irgasning on live TV while describing how they're going to kill and destroy everything "evil" we're really scraping the bottom. Is there anyone in these organizations who has an ounce of morality or humanity left? Or even just any sense taste really

1. If ICE isn't getting paid, how likely is it that you, as an illegal alien, would be? And who says you wouldn't simply be detained anyway when you go to claim your check/prepaid gift card? That's what happened to people when they were lined up outside immigration court and following the agreed-upon process.

#130I'm not a gambler, but there should be a thing on those gambling sites on whether this is about extraterrestrial life or mexicans
According to Polymarket, there's a 16% chance US will confirm aliens exist: https://polymarket.com/event/will-the-us-confirm-that-aliens...
It's because of the time value of money. Buying no is much like buying a bond.
It doesn't mean there's a 16% chance.
It's probably more attractive to gamblers when presented like this.
