Maybe "impossible" is a bad word. It's impractical to do such a thing. It's nearly impossible to make the southern border completely water tight. They would never get it done.
The point that I am making is that that would not achieve anything. It wouldn't stop the problem as long as businesses are thriving off of cheap illegal labor. They are the culprits for this whole problem.
People are forgetting about the fact that it's illegal to hire an illegal immigrant. That's a worse crime to me. Point fingers at the employers. Go after them. Trump is never going to get anything done if he's focused on building walls and running after millions of foreign nationals.
It's the obvious solution that they are IGNORING.
Are you implying that if a wall were constructed, business people in the united states who hire illegals, would be flying them into the country, instead of them trying to get through an impenetrable wall?
Does that go for Russkie oligarch anchor babies and the Russkie mafia as well?
When you decide to be less ignorant and you want to have an adult conversation I'll give you the time you deserve, until then please shut up and let adults talk.
The vast majority of people who scam their way into the United States come here to get legitimate jobs. If we cracked down on employers, they would not be able to do that, and illegal immigration would slow to a trickle. There would be a mass exodus of illegal aliens if the threat to employers was real. Mothers wouldn't even come here to give birth if we made it impossible for them to find work.
Drug trafficking is actually a different issue, that's small part of the problem we have. Building a wall just to stop that won't change much.
Again, the cold hard data and the US Border Patrol disagrees with all of your points. Shouldn't we listed to the people who are actually trying to secure the border for a change?
Cause they are lazy. Cause it doesn't affect then. Cause it gives them the usual route to blame Democrats for their lazy disintetest in protecting America.
Goodness sake they don't even care that their leader is a spy.
Losers.
Now he is a spy.......you better run to mueller with your evidence.....
You did not read the article, did you? I don't think you would have posted such a misleading thread if you had.
This is the basic problem in 'compromise.' The disagreements are too great.
Immigration reform is not a Wall. To take someone's words and spin them is Fake News.
"...Castro, a Mexican-American politician who previously served five terms as the mayor of San Antonio, countered that as president he would "make sure that we invest in sensible, smart and effective border security that includes personnel, that includes the smart use of technology and that does not scapegoat these immigrants but tries to look for a way that we can get to comprehensive immigration reform to fix our broken immigration system."...
I read the entire article, and he DID say the things you put in bold, but the one sentence where he stated ,
Trump's policy " is not stopping immigrants from coming into the country.", speaks volumes as to Castro's stupidity, and the absolute need for a wall to stop people from entering the country in the first place.
Why is that policy so hard for you liberals to understand?

Bob.
No. I'm confused as to how you came up with that.
People come here on their own free will. No one is importing them. But they do this because they know they can find a job. If we went after employers with hefty penalties, illegals wouldn't be able to find jobs and would stop coming to the United States unlawfully. There would be no incentive for them to do that. It's really simple.
Most don't physically cross the border anyway. They fly here on tourist visas and just stay. A wall would do nothing.

The latest data shows that about half of them come across the Southern Border. Why can't we built a wall AND address those that hire illegal aliens?
Its just not accepted by the left b/c they don't believe in science.
I'm a right leaning person, who voted for Trump and does not support illegal immigration, but I think building a great wall across the southern border is a stupid idea that would achieve nothing in addition to being fiscally irresponsible.
We have to go after the industry to that profits off of illegal aliens. It would actually be easy to do. We wouldn't even have to pass any laws. Enforcement is just going after the wrong people, and getting nothing done.
