Sorry to burst your bubble, really.
Here is moe'.
From the Mises Institute
The Costs of Immigration
According to the Center for Immigration Studies (via the Federation for American Immigration Reform), state government spending on welfare for immigrants is $11-$22 billion through programs like TANF. A report by the Center for Immigration Studies estimated that the Federal Government spend some $26.3 billion on services for illegal immigrants in 2002. These immigrants paid about $16 billion in taxes, leaving us with a net cost of about $10.4 billion (these are their numbers; I know $26.3-$16=$10.3, but there’s rounding error)."
So , obviously you don't know you ass from a hole in the ground.
You are either a Zionut or an American Likudnick hence conflicted by interest.

I'm not suggesting that the borders be closed to voluntary immigration.
I'm talking about the State shipping tens of thousands (with plans for hundreds of thousands) of refugees around the world, after processing them each through a uniquely extensive resettlement program involving multiple agencies and bureaucracies that generally takes about 18-24 months of resources and man-hours to complete, and then setting them up with language education, vocational training, job placement assistance, housing assistance, healthcare--the works. This is already costing billions of dollars.
So since the derp above couldn't seem to provide an answer, maybe you can: How much more theft does your conscience demand before it is satisfied? And I'm also still wondering why we're speaking about this as some kind of binary matter, as if we either bring them to the U.S., or we do nothing at all. Why is bringing them to the U.S. being spoken of as the only practical solution?

I'm glad to hear it. I've seen a number of right anarchists lean in that direction or outright advocate that very thing, using some of the same language or arguments you did. It's been incredibly disappointing to witness.

The greatest preference would be we do nothing at all - no bombing, warring, or regime change, which would likely lessen the outreach of the consequences of the war there, and no active refusal of refugees wanting to come here.
It'd be the market at work, and it would be wonderful.

I think the resistance to letting in refugees after the Paris attacks could be very bad for Rand Paul and the GOP. I'm not even religious and I understand the religious concern with the opposition to taking in refugees. Giving refuge is just the right thing to do. http://www.politico.com/story/2015/1...istians-215991
Ironically, among the governors joining this anti-refugee hysteria is Michigan’s Rick Snyder. He’s been practically begging the Obama administration for immigrants, including Syrian refugees, to revitalize his own security disaster zone called Detroit, long the murder capital of the country. Yet over the weekend he announced that he was going to suspend the refugee resettlement program — never mind that metro-Detroit’s Dearborn is home to the largest Arab population outside of Middle East whose residents, despite occasional scare mongering by official reports, have never committed an act of terrorism."

I would be in complete agreement with permitting them to take over all of the overseas U.S. Military and allied bases and bringing home the U.S. Military, retiring the lion-share of them out, and dismantling/scraping/recycling all of their logistical equipment and artillery.

No. A religious test is impossible. If we say only Christians allowed, we'll start to suddenly see a lot more "Christians" around. It is impossible to prove anything in the present situation.

I agree that the US taxpayers shouldn't be footing the bill to bring refugees over here, but if someone in the US wants to sponsor and be responsible for a refugee, why shouldn't they? A co-worker of mine came to the US as a refugee from a Bosnian concentration camp 20 years ago. Now she's a highly productive US citizen. I don't see why these people shouldn't be welcomed as long as someone is responsible for them.
