All this arguing about policies that are proven not to work to curb illegal immigration when the simple solution is to take away the sole reason to immigrate illegally into the United States - the demand to enter the United States legally is higher than the available supply of opportunities to enter the United States legally. Go fix that and you will wipe out illegal entry.
Most people that hand-wring over illegal immigration care a lot more about the immigration piece than the illegal piece.
They don't want the immigrants here, legal or not, so increasing opportunities to legally immigrate doesn't solve their real problem.
Look at civ playing the "racists!" card. I fondly remember the old days where you pretended to be an independent. Lol.
LOLOL. Y'all bang on libs for making everything about race and then turn around and bring racism accusations into a conversation where it wasn't said or implied (by me anyway).
People banging the "build the wall" or anti-immigration drum are almost exclusively focused on the 75% of illegals that flow across our southern border from Mexico/Central/South America. And (aside from the overwhelming majority of those immigrants being white) I wasn't talking about racism because most people that don't want those immigrants flowing in balk at things (fair or unfair) like their impact on the job market, crimes they commit, and taxes they don't pay. Making them legal fixes the tax piece but not the job market or crime pieces.
So you good with making the immigration process more streamlined and much quicker and easier to navigate?
