To the 14% of us who said yes, we should let in everyone who wants a better life: How many should be let in: thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions or a billion? And should the tax payers pay for the migrants expenses while they get settled even if there are millions and millions of economic refugees?
Did you know the world has 3 billion people who make under a dollar a day?
AGAIN: They just want a better life! Don't they deserve it?
They can get it like the rst of us.....start fighting the men are not protecting their homeland. Why are we responsible to give everyone a good life? I know of about 20 people living in tent camps why are you not thinking these people need better lives........they are already Americans living on the streets. The left is azz backwards helping non Americans over Americans.

Clean up our own states than we can think about those on the outside. Why are you taking all the responsibility from these people taking care of their own and dumping it on the American people? You act like we are all rich and our own children don't have needs and want a better life.

I have a different question: every person living in America is here because it has always admitted migrants wanting a better life. When should America have stopped? 1980, 1900, 1776, 1000 B.C.?
When those who want to bring these refugees in are thinking about who will pay, they don't think "we", they think "you".

It depends upon whom you ask. If you asked the member of the Native American people, they say it should have stopped around 1491. Open borders didn't work out so well for them, did it?

NO. We have enough people in the US who think they "deserve" a better life and they were born in the US.
If they fought for change in their own countries, fought for their countries, then they would have a chance to earn a better life. Because they come from countries that do not have a welfare system doesn't mean they "deserve" a better life by living off the welfare system of another country.
If they get her legally then I say they have a right to be here, however just slipping to border and working under the table.......... I'm not with that.

I guess you don't know what immigrants went through in order to have a better life before America gave it to illegals, which those immigrants weren't. No one gave them anything. There was no welfare. They did it on their own. They built their lives by earning it. Many returned to their home country for different reasons, mostly because they couldn't afford to remain in the US or they could not acclimate.
You should read some material about Ellis Island and the immigrants that came through. Very interesting stuff and you will never again compare early Ellis Island immigration to those that now want to come to the US.
These are unskilled, third-world economic migrants, to be clear, not refugees --
I would fingerprint them and deport them. If they show up a second time, put them in jail.
Just don't let them in in the first place.
If all they can do is stand at a wall, wishing they were on the other side of it, let them. At some point Mexico will have enough of their side being swamped and start doing the deporting themselves.
Too bad Trump can only say "we'll make Mexico pay" when the reality is that it'll be fairly easy to force Mexico to pay.
