I know ICE is federal not State, but say CO is to adopt AZ style law and provide facilities for ICE to be more efficient. Would you pay the extra tax?

sure, i will pick up some extra tax, right after they tax the shit out of marijuana, sell off all the homes used for free housing of the illegals, confiscate and auction off all vehicles and other property owned/obtained by the illegals and get my vehicle insurance reduced to take off "uninsured motorist coverage", apply the saved money from tax stamps and whatever else they receive to the budget. oh, and once unemployed americans take the construction jobs and whatever else is left over who will then pay taxes on the money they earn. I guess I could also factor in the huge savings from health insurance, reduced need for prison space (might be negligible...not sure on that one), the saved tax dollars for law enforcement and judicial system to work the extra murders, rapes, theft cases. I am sure I am missing quite a bit. but once those have been satisfied and if we are still short on some cash i will be more than happy to pay some extra taxes.
