The Wall will save money. That's been proven so many times I'm sick of repeating it.

Look at the cost of these detention centres. How much are the American tax payers prepared to pay to keep them in better accommodation?

ICE facilities cost $133.99 a day per adult
According to ICE’s FY 2018 budget, on average it costs $133.99 a day to maintain one adult detention bed. But immigration groups have pegged the number closer to $200 a day.

The cost to maintain a family bed, which keeps mothers and children together in a family residential center, costs around $319 a day, according to DHS.
How can it cost less to keep the family in a separate secure unit?

Those beds cost $775 per person per night, HHS told NBC News.
Unless they're talking about throwing many families in together and the danger still exists. Any way the cost will sky rocket once better, safer, secure accommodation is found.

But you are free to donate more money to the detention centres to look after these criminals.
