N.B. This poll is directed mostly toward anti-immigrant people: i.e. those for whom this choice represents a trade-off.
Obviously, for the free immigration people like myself, there's no trade-off.
I'll take both.

ICE's entire budget is 1% of the spending cut.
Even the entire Department of Fatherland Security is only 40 billion.
There's not really a way to get to 500 billion without completely slashing entire other features of the fedgov, or seriously dipping into either military or welfare spending.
Don't get me wrong, I mean $#@! 'em all... you could just welch on the F-35 and make up three times that amount... but for people who are still sleeping and think we need *some* of this $#@!, it's impossible to cut 500 billion and not piss them off somehow.
And the ones of us who are woke and recognize we can get by just fine without *any* of it, of course we're going for the cut because we all think immigration controls are bull$#@! to begin with.
There are no crimes against people.
There are only crimes against the state.
And the state will never, ever choose to hold accountable its agents, because a thing can not commit a crime against itself.

Except as to the rule of appointment, the United States have an indefinite discretion to make requisitions for men and money; but they have no authority to raise either by regulations extending to the individual citizens of America.
Why does there have to be a choice? Immigration would not be a problem without the Nanny State.

Cut $500 billion from what we're spending and use some of the savings to deport illegals.

I do not suffer from Trump Rearrangement Syndrome. Sorry if that triggers you.
So I guess we'll put @Swordsmyth, @euphemia, and @Anti-Neocon down for deportation, given the comments they made in lieu of voting?
Neither mass deportation nor a $500 billion spending cut is possible in this political environment.
This is hypothetical, to see how the issues compare in the minds of RPFers.
Poorly constructed null hypothesis.
