Why don't we just deport the illegal aliens that have been tried, convicted, and are actively using up valuable resources sitting in local, state, and federal jails?

It seems to me it would be much easier to get a 747, load up every illegal alien in jail, and send them packing to Philip S. W. Goldson International, the southern most airport in Mexico. From there, they could take a few short hops to Belieze, Guatemalla, Honduras, etc.

The math is simple: #illegal inmates/#seats on a 747 = how many flights you'd have to take.
If #flights*Cost per flight < cost of keeping #inmates in jail, then do it.

Local and state governments don't even have to get federal approval, because it would be their budgets, their inmates, and their planes. (I think. I could be wrong, and probably am.)

If you think about it, these people:
1. Are already separated from their families, and are not able to send money back home.
2. Are actively using the tax payer's money.
3. Are not working jobs that no other americans will work.
4. Have committed, been convicted, and been identified as Illegal

The list goes on.

Now I'm not saying Mexico is the only port of call for these illegals, but it is a case for the argument.
