What are you going to do about it? Nothing. Go ahead and pitch a fit and help the DUmmies.
I just want the wall built ASAP.
Important note: if you buy avocados when they are cheap, and grind them up without other ingredients except lime juice which prevents browning, they freeze very well and keep for a long time. Then, when you want guacamole, defrost and add the other ingredients you like.
My own recommendation is to not add sour cream as an ingredient, but keep it on the side with some green onion on it. Americans prefer the more sour taste of sour cream over French crème fraîche or Mexican crema, both of which are milder.
In any event, after eating guacamole with pico de gallo or salsa mixed it, and the other ingredients, a chip with a bit of sour cream and onion on it is a great contrast.
The third dish is either refried or black beans, with some added heat to make them interesting. Add some pizza cut cheese crisps and you have a serious meal. Cold beer is nice.
I am taking a long view and thinking about how this could be used against us in the next election cycle
There is no perfect answer here. Even looking back at history, walls (Berlin, China, others) and their effectiveness can be debated.
I have no illusion that this wall will solve the problem in and of it self. But I am pretty sure what happens if we don’t.
That's nice; not all of us have property extensive enough to grow wild berries. I live in Queens, and property is quite dear. And if I had blackberry bushes, someone would steal the fruit. It's been a struggle, but I finally got some of the more cretinous locals to respect my extensive and beautiful garden out front. My immediate neighbors take up the slack, because they adore my garden, too
There are Stew Leonards around, but they are not close. I have no reason to visit them. If it came down to it, I'd make my own guacamole. I just find it convenient to visit BJ's Warehouse and get 16 single serve pods, because then the guacamole does not turn brown.
It might work, worth putting a couple of cloves in the ground to see. Garlic seems to like to be watered but not wet, if that makes any sense. A really damp spot is bad, needs to dry out between rains. WikiHow has a good tutorial:

You can also apparently grow it indoors, just do a web search.
Blackberries are like weeds here. They’ll come up anywhere if you don’t mow them down or pull them out of your landscaping beds. Pokeweed is the same.
Correction on the tequila, it was more specifically Roca Patrón Silver, I found out this morning.
Can I live without guacamole?
Yes.
Yes I can.
Well I live where they grow lots of Berries, Cherries, Apples so in the summer we get lots of local stuff and Asparagus..
A lot of the produce that we get from Mexico is grown by Mennonite and Mormon colonies that moved down there for the cheaper land.
Sorry about that I won’t eat Mexican produce period.. In the winter that really limits my intake of vegetables..
And just what are you going to do?
It’s difficult to reflect upon the horror my generation’s youth when most fruits and veggies in the grocery store were of the seasonal variety.
How did we survive?
The difference we need that wall an nobody that wants it cares who pays for it.
