There is no wall that can't be tunneled under.

Those with skin in the game, family members here illegally, and those using illegal labor usually have these responses. San Diego's wall has brought this crap to a standstill.

Yeah, I was wondering how some Genius was going to build a wall out of fiber optic cables. Seems kinda expensive and I would think that it could be cut through.

Which in itself proves the effectiveness of the wall.
Something additional has to be done to defeat it.

To actually stop someone you have to detect and interdict. A wall does neither. It simply slows down someone, it does not stop them.

The congress could have started the process to end birth right citizenship and chain migration 50 years ago. The fact that no one did informs me the employers are paying off both parties and the elected.

Are you willing for the poultry, fish and pork processor to pay a higher wage to get Americans to do that work?
They enjoy illegal labor.

Are you willing for restaurants to raise their prices to pay a living wage to the kitchen help in order to not have a kitchen full of illegals?

And on and on. Most businesses in my town use illegals for cheap. The owners enjoy the extra coins in their pockets
