They resulted in a cost to us due to the mistreatment they experienced once they got here. It's not like there was a line outside America where each immigrant that walks into the country is being handed $450,000. There was an intermediate step there that was completely unnecessary and extremely neglectful and harmful.

The good news is that, with our current governmental structure, that money was likely never going to go to this country's people anyway. It'll probably just be added to the total debt this country has that's become so comically large that it basically doesn't even matter anymore.
