I remember listening to a podcast about this some time ago. There's a whole network of banking operations run by the usual suspects down in South America who finance these trips with extortionate interest that ensures the illegal alien is on the hook whether they make it to the USA or not. It's a self-sustaining economy.
Yep. Anyone (in the government) who seriously wanted to stop it could do so tomorrow. Seize the cash, freeze the accounts, shoot a couple invaders (the rest will flee), boom problem solved.
Won't happen until the system collapses. We await Caesar.
The real question is how are these dirt-poor Venezuelans affording 15 thousand American dollars?

Are any of the people funding these groups happen to have a hook nose?
