Up to $852,000: How much Trump ends up paying for each deportation
flight
 Synopsis
 President Trump's administration has initiated deportation flights
using U.S. military planes, significantly increasing costs compared to
DHS-chartered flights. A C-17 flight reportedly costs $252,000, and a
C-130E flight could cost up to $852,000, contrasting with DHS flights
costing $8,577.

What someone at the Treasury Dept. needs to do is figure a way to get everyone with a penny collection to turn them in. Even if they offer $1.50 for ever 100 pennies, it would stand to make a significant savings over 3.69 cents per penny.
