Imagine if ICE had a database & the IRS could collect Tax Revenues for all wired $$$$$ / funds to Mexico and etc.?

A process that required the sender to show a State issued Legal ID & SSN, that is recorded. Then a 5% per transfer fee applied.

Of course, allowing any US Citizen sender to apply with the IRS for a refund, and it be issued in 45 days.

EL PASO TIMES (June 8th, 2025)
"In 2024, immigrants living abroad sent home $160.9 billion to the countries in Latin America, according to data from the Inter-American Development Bank. Mexico and Guatemala receive the highest amount of money as remittances, with Mexico receiving $64.745 billion and Guatemala receiving $21.510 billion in 2024."

The collected $9 Billion, would take care of a lot of the estimated 350,000 homeless US Citizens & US Vet's @ $25,000 each p/yr.

#8 According to Western Union, International transfers range from $35-$50. Yeah, let's put a tax of 50% on wires to Mexico.
I read Mexico receives around $60B in wires from the US each year.

#10 WIKI AI cite;
"Mexico received 64,745 million dollars (md) in remittances in 2024, +2.3% compared to 2023 when 63,319 md were received. Remittances reach a new historical maximum in 2024 and accumulate a streak of 11 consecutive years of growth, which began in 2014.Feb 4, 2025"

"Remittances from abroad account for roughly 4.5 percent of Mexico's total GDP and form the largest single source of foreign income for Mexico, outstripping the income brought in by any other individual source, including foreign direct investment (FDI) from the United States, tourism, and net manufacturing exports.Jan 15, 2025"

#12 The collected $9 Billion, would take care of a lot

A very prqctical suggestion, NN2N1. I wonder if it could be done easily by a one paragraph presidential Executive order, or if it requires a law passed by Congress.

#13 Cartels are already planning, I'm sure, to deal with the tax/shutdown of remittances. What's the Spanish for Hawala?
