Outrage Follows Report Government To Spend $50 Million On Resort For "Young Illegal Immigrants"

Tyler Durden's picture




 

While we understand that there are many nuances in the ongoing illegal immigrant debate, and there are certainly two sides to every story, we can't help but wonder if the US government granting a $50 million award to BCFS Health and Human Services to house "young illegal immigrants at the site of the current Palm Aire Hotel and Suites" in Weslaco, Texas is the best use of government funding. As KRGV reported, " A center for unaccompanied minors set to open in Weslaco later this year will be the first of its kind in the nation, officials with a network of non-profits said.  A center for unaccompanied minors set to open in Weslaco later this year will be the first of its kind in the nation, officials with a network of non-profits said... Representatives with BCFS said the Palm Aire will undergo a multi-million dollar transformation."

Perhaps the reason why the public's attention has not only been picqued by this news, but has led to a broad wave of outrage, is that a cursory scan of the Hotel complex reveals accomodations which are inaccessible to millions of Americans, let alone "unaccompanied minor immigrants."

BCFS has a prepared reason why it needs the funding:

BCFS runs a temporary detention center for young illegal immigrants at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio. BCFS began as an orphanage for Hispanic children in San Antonio in 1944

 

"Children ... who weren't able to go into other orphanages. They weren't allowed at the white orphanages, they weren't allowed at the African-American orphanages," said Krista Piferrer, with BCFS external affairs

Perhaps it is true that the BCFS was overdue an expansion, but that does not explain the need for tens of millions for its purported relocation into what is effectively a resort that has tennis courts, swimming pools, and saunas? Because a quick glimpse at the website of the Palm Aire Hotel indeed reveals accomodation conditions that many Americans - the kind that actually pay taxes - would be delighted to spend the rest of their lives in:

Facility:

Guest room:

Gym:

Sauna:

Tennis court:

Hotel bar:

 

Who runs BSCF? Meet Kevin Dinnin, President and CEO.

Dinnin is the foremost expert in the nation on medical needs sheltering and integrating people  with disabilities into emergency planning. Mr. Dinnin serves as the President and CEO of BCFS; under his leadership BCFS has provided services to those affected by crisis and disaster around the world with an array of mental health, medical and human service programs.

 

Mr. Dinnin served as the project executive for the FEMA guidance for Functional Needs Support Services in General Populations shelters, published in 2010. Additionally, he has been credited with developing the most comprehensive training manual for sheltering persons with medical needs known to be in existence and for establishing and maintaining the largest medical shelter capacity of any state in the US as well as developing the Texas Medical Shelter Task Force.  He served as the commander of the Health and Medical Branch of Texas Task Force Ike following the devastating hurricane in 2008, and served as commander for the final Galveston shelter operation for those impacted by Hurricane Ike. Recently, Mr. Dinnin led an incident management team response to Haiti following the 2010 earthquake where he implemented the Incident Command System in one of the largest Haitian hospitals.

 

Additionally, Mr. Dinnin has held numerous appointments with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services including a secretarial appointment to the National Advisory Committee on Terrorism following the September 11, 2001 attacks. He was selected by the Texas Division of Emergency Management to serve as Incident Commander of the West Texas Unified Command when more than 1,000 responders engaged in the FLDS incident in San Angelo, Texas.

In other words, a career government worker, who has extensive experience with the "proper" allocation of emergency funding. Or perhaps not.

The Gateway Pundit has more on this curious development:

The plan is to have the hotel ready for illegal alien children ages 12 to 17 by October 1st of this year, a mere two-and-half months from now. It is expected the average stay will be about fifteen days.

 

The Palm Aire Hotel and Suites currently advertises amenities such as two outdoor swimming pools—one Olympic sized—Jacuzzis, sauna, steam room, two racquetball courts, outdoor tennis courts, picnic area with grills and a fitness center with twenty machines and free weights.

 

Attracted to the space for outdoor recreation at the Palm Aire Hotel and Suites, BCFS spoke of building a soccer field at the hotel and adding a perimeter fence.

 

BCFS plans to employ 650 people at the Palm Aire Hotel and Suites, which would mean slightly over one worker per illegal alien child. According to the BCSF Website, the charity’s jobs pay from $10 to $45 per hour.

 

KRGV-TV quoted a BCFS spokeswoman about the purpose of buying the Palm Aire Hotel and Suites: "It’s going to be an intake facility, which serves as a lot like a hospital emergency room,” Krista Piferrer, BCFS VP External Affairs said. We’ve all seen the photos and the videos of children in crowded Border Patrol facilities. What this site is going to allow to happen is quickly move those children out of Border Patrol cells and triage them,” Piferrer said.”

 

BCFS plans for the facility to be “completely self-contained” with Piferrer telling KRGV-TV, ‘medical staff will be on hand so children with diseases or injuries will not be transferred to local hospitals.’

 

Piferrer told the Valley Morning Star the Palm Aire Hotel and Suites facility would ‘(provide) medical and mental health care, on-site educational programs, recreational programs and case management.’

The conclusion:

According to a Hidalgo County commissioner, the BCFS contract for the Palm Aire Hotel and Suites is an annual one worth $50 million per year. It is not part of the $3.7 billion emergency funding for the illegal alien invasion requested by the Obama administration as the bill hasn’t yet passed but it is a good indication of where the money will go.

Sadly, it is. Because when there is no strings attached money sloshing around the system, and when there is a sudden crisis that should certainly not be put to waste, what is assured is that the vast bulk of the funds will be almost certainly misappropriated, potentially making gentlemen like Dinnin exorbitantly rich (perhaps as reward for his years of service at DHHS), and at worst it will be misallocted with zero regard for the consequences: after all it is taxpayers who are paying for it.

And the last point is perhaps critical: because as noted above, the most disturbing revelation in this story is how painfully - for many - inequitable US public policy is and will be in the coming months and years as America's immigrant problem is addressed. Because while one may argue that children, illegal immigrants or otherwise deserve amenities, one can also understand why, rightfully, many honest, taxpaying Americans ask: "why don't we get comparable treatment by the government, at least we pay our taxes."

That, and also the fundamental question nobody has addressed: if immigrants know they can expect such white glove treatment, will it make them more or less likely to cross the border?

In a few years they'll be Dream Act members of the U.S. military (or a 'comparably funded defense force at home') - - - fast tracked as new 'American citizens'.

They 'won't go to public schools', so there is an added opportunity to brain wash them with hate for all the 'racists' who believe that a nation should have a secure border. And, of course, any indication of former gang affliations is completely erased. They get a new, clean record.  Then they get military training and weaponry.

Scary huh ?

Maybe the best thing the anti illegals can do is not try and stop the flood at the border states but  fund a few hundred buses to take a shitload of illegals to a libtard bastion and let them deal with the problem. Flood their do-gooder takes a village crap under a tidal wave of the worst illegals.

Find a few dozen empty luxury summer residences in the Hamptons, bust the locks and pack the illegals in overnight. Select the most thuggish "children" to do this and watch the Hampton system collapse.

@Youngman: You are exactly correct. This also from the BCFS site page concerning the Weslaco 'facility':

"The Weslaco site is part of the relocation and expansion of the organization’s Harlingen program, which has been in operation since 2007.  The 600-bed facility expects to be open by October 1 and will result in an annual economic impact of $50 million. The site will employ 650 staff in positions ranging from senior management, to clinical, case management, and direct service staff (totaling more than $16 million in salaries and benefits annually). Ten million dollars is estimated to be filtered into the local economy for operating services such as electricity, rent, contract labor, gasoline, telephone, office supplies, cleaning supplies, advertising, rentals, groceries, and miscellaneous local vendors. Two million dollars in immediate property improvements will be invested within the first 90 days."

So, along with the ever growing private prison system it would appear the US economy is looking forward to full employment after all... such innovation!!!

The outrage is not that we are helping out a bunch of poor brown people. The outrage is how we are doing it. Which, ostensibly is giving them a free stay at a 5-star hotel. We have Americans who dont have a home, dont have healthcare, let alone a job. Yet we are spending money on restocking the wine cellar for a bunch of people who arent even citizens. Is it possible to misallocate money in a worse, less responsible way?

They always have some touching story about they provided Oshrieky Magumbo his first hot shower and ham sandwhich in his tumbledown African mud village... And always with the photos, they somehow always have voluminous photos.

I always ask - Were you unable to find any fellow Americans to help? If you have a fetish for assisting Negroes, I even know of a few cities - right here in America - that are indistinguishable from deepest, darkest Africa.

I always have a good belly laugh when I read about some hapless American do-gooder who got gutted by his overseas charges.

In fairness - the 'minors' are technically going to be processed as 'asylum seekers' - before you junk me - that's what their status is... why they were spread out around the country, I don't know, whether or not they are legitimately asylum seekers, I also don't know.

But here's the rub - Obama [by which I, for my part, always mean the people behind his throne - and I think you can look at his first chief of staff and advisors to get an idea - I think the secret muslim shit was to distract from the Chicago Zio crew as well as Zbig et al] is eager to find ways to do shit on his own...

"Asylum" may be the new legal trick - gets them lawyers and shelter and the ability to work and go to school and all sorts of goodies.

I would have no problem with a path to citizenship for people who have been working and paying taxes - IFF they secured the fucking border.

But the government won't and the Left absolutely refuses....

what's left but massive tax protests to stop feeding the beast?

This shit is going well beyond crazy.

Guys, please, Illegal Immigrant is a racial slur.  Please refer to them as Undocumented Worker. I'll be honest, that place isn't all that nice.  If we could get some kind of serious tax reform, and get the rich to pay their fair share, we could put in some water slides and those decorative fish that spout water out of their mouths around the edges of the pools. But no, freaking rebuplicans have to block every measure put forth by the president, just becuase he is a black man trying to help!  

Heartless Tea Baggers, these are kids for god's sake! I bet you got to go to a nice summer camp when you were a kid, and I bet you drove on OUR roads to get there!  All these kids ask for is a nice place to stay with a pool, central air, and a modest sauna. 

There will be great opprotunity for these children as the surrounding area will be able to leverage these kids talents in all manner of employment.  This will not happen paying them a measly $7/ hour however.  I propose anyone without an ID immedialty qualifies for a minimum wage of $15/hour.  In this way we will even the playing field for all and give everyone the same helping hand up that you all got.

This is not that great a hotel. Get over it. You know I am telling the truth if you have any experience traveling at all. It is outdated and cheaply/mediocrely appointed. I bet they are in the early process of going bankrupt. The redesign may well make it more like a prison. Meanwhile there are plenty of other issues:

  • This place ain't big enough. Will this set a precedent of doing this to more out of date old failing hotels? Is this the govs answer for what to do with some of the US failing businesses so they won't sit vacant? Convert some shopping malls maybe? And create jobs for otherwise unemployed folks? Is that some of the purpose here?
  • It will encourage them to keep coming, no question.
  • It will bring in a host of other issues, abuses at these hotels, lawsuits regarding abuses, what services are they entitled to when, under what conditions?
  • Wonder what will happen to property values in these areas?
  • The bottom line, this is NOT solving the problem. It is not even a stop gap, or a temporary solution. It has nothing to do with the problem.

I have another idea:

  • Get all our military back home. 
  • Invade Mexico. Annex it, make it another state. Break it up if they like.
  • Give the welfare in place, where they are. Impose law and order on them, where they are.
  • Push forward. Invade and Annex until we go right through Central America. 
  • Impose our culture and values on them.
  • Take their natural resources to pay for it all.
  • Make drugs legal.

Immigration problem solved.

"I have another idea:"

 

What followed that phrase may have been an assumed open sarc tag, but there's little there that I would argue with. Perhaps a word shift to "offer our culture, etc". I have been saying for years that buying Mexico is the best way to address multiple problems. I would just rather "buy" with [plentiful] USDs than invade, because we are so in the world dog house already, but either way it might boil down to giving them 'an offer they couldn't refuse'.

The most difficult item on the list to execute would be making drugs legal... and I suspect you know it's not because drugs are 'bad'.

Sorry chaps,it's all part of the plan to eliminate white Europeans on both continents,over here in blighty,there is unlimited money to spend on illegal immigrants/economic migrants-sorry-asylum seekers- the purpose built reception centre at Yarls Wood for them was burnt down during a riot,but no shortage of money-it was immediately rebuilt,contrast that with the government policy of seizing old peoples homes to pay for their care in their final years after having paid taxes all their life,and refusal to build sufficient prisons to house the ever growing prison population(boosted by uncontrolled third world immigration naturellement),and the people continue to vote for the political parties that commit treason on a daily basis, anyone who speaks out against the policies and the politicians who enforce them and back them up with "AntiRacist" laws and legislation -(read anti white laws) is soon arrested and shown the error of their ways.

He cannot dispute that FACT.

 

He will not address the hypocrisy. What they say and what they DO just do not reconcile.

 

After his previous refusal to engage in honest debate it seems as if he wants to promote an agenda. In that sense he is a troll and not worthy of response.
