I’d love the wall as much as anyone. But, why do we focus, so much on the f*cking wall?
Why aren’t we focusing on the draw that lures them all here? The welfare benefits. And it goes for both the illegals and the “refugees” that are coached on all the right things to say when interviewed. I know that because I’ve seen it, firsthand, while working in Iraq. NGO personnel telling them what to say when they are interviewed.
Maybe someone can assist. Is there not a court ruling that states that ALL kids, illegal or not, have a right to go to school in the US, once they are here. If so, our taxes go up. We pay for the breakfast and lunch. Have to hire interpreters and have ESL classes, all at our costs and we don’t get to decide. Our houses miraculously are worth 25% more the minute illegals move in.
God forbid, we ever determine that the 14th Amendment does NOT guarantee, Birthright Citizenship, and most of this crap goes away, anyway. Take away that citizenship and the benefits that go with it, and the problem starts to take care of itself.
Start taking away the economic bait, whether it be jobs or Section 8 & EBT, and they’ll stop. The Wall is just a bonus at that point.
The wall is apolitical and will remain in place and keep working even if the USA elects another Marxist like Obama.
Because you have to start somewhere.
I agree with you. The wall is not enough. We need to end welfare for illegals, birthright citizenship, and chain migration. We also need to drastically limit the conditions that will justify asylum, provide that failing to show up up for an immigration hearing is both a felony and grounds for immediate expulsion without further proceedings of any kind, and provide that registering to vote or voting while in the country illegally is grounds for immediate expulsion without further proceedings after time served. Also, no amnesty. We were promised that in 86.
Shush!
Someone will compare the Welfare Queen's brood of brats to Anchor Babies; which INSURE a geometric rise in the number of 'recipients' in the coming generations.
