STEPHEN MILLER (FORMER TRUMP ADVISER): Those who are advocating mass Afghan resettlement in this country are doing so for political — not humanitarian — reasons. It is extraordinarily expensive to resettle a refugee in the United States. They get free health care; they get free education; they get free housing; they get free food; they get cash welfare. For the price that you could resettle refugees in America, you could resettle 10 times more, 15 times more in their home region — in this case, primarily in Pakistan. Resettling in America is not about solving a humanitarian crisis. It's about accomplishing an ideological objective: to change America.
