Because Singapore impressed the heck out of me.
Their Work Permits system eliminates illegal immigrants.
Because they know exactly where you work and live via the work permits. Employer can not hire anyone without a work permit. Rand Paul is in favor of the work permit system.

Singapore has practically no street crime. Drug dealers are given death penalty if convicted. So there is no drug problem. No jails, no cops, no judges, no bailiffs, no lawyers needed to enforce drug laws. If they catch you doing graffiti, or spitting in public areas, they flog you in public. No wonder the city looks clean.

Finally prosperity is visible everywhere. They have no food stamps or unemployment compensation programs by the government. Result? Negative 40% unemployment rate. Which means there are 40% more jobs than citizens. Those are filled by foreign workers on work permits.

US could learn a lot from Singapore, not from Mexico or S. America.

Singapore and America a have nothing in common, even chewing gum is illegal there.

Singapore has twice the population of Brooklyn, and from 1994 through 1999 executed by hanging, 14 per 100,000 of it’s population, for breaking the law.

Among the death penalty crimes: “Unlawful discharge of firearms, even if no one is injured”
