    It didn’t pay well until recently. With approx. $150 billion USD I’m willing to bet a Jr. ICE agent’s starting hourly wage will be enormous. Probably the highest entry level pay scale out of all American law enforcement agencies and armed forces.

      Why would that money mean higher wages for the grunts on the ground, when it can be absorbed by higher-ups in the organization? Walmart has tons of money coming in and that doesn’t result in higher wages for workers.
