Deportation Industrial Complex

The current wave of mass deportations builds on the opposite of a virtuous cycle, in which the government and big business monetize and exploit people from overseas who are simply trying to get by. In many cases, they come from countries that were destabilized by U.S. foreign policy. Now they’re being returned to their home countries or to third countries, where they are bound to be motivated to help build the kind of societies disliked by American imperialists.
