Yarddog, the answer to stopping illegal immigration isn't as one dimensional as merely securring our land borders.

Over the years, other FReepers have compiled lists of all of our suggestions for stopping illegal immigration.

Part of the answer is securring our land borders, which could be done for about $10 billion dollars per year.

That would be about $30 to $93 billion dollars less than illegal immigration costs the U.S. Taxpayers every year, depending on whether you ask Dr. Hubble, the C.I.S., or FAIR.

It would also drop a big hammer on the cartels that are smuggling tons of illegal dope over our land borders, so it would save the DEA some billions.

Over 90% of the estimated 3 million illegal crossings, yearly into the USA, are along our land borders.

Secure the land borders and illegal immigration is all but stopped.

Poohbah will try to spin some Ian Flemming/Clive Cussler tale about a new, massive, Mexican armada of giant, super freighters deploying thousands of Zodiac rubber boats that will sneak the 3 million illegals onto our shores.

That won't happen.

With all of the days of the year it's not even safe to be out on the open ocean in a Coast Guard cutter? ;^)

Give me a break.

The answer is to secure our land borders against illegal aliens while we simultaneously:

-go after their employers,

-kick the illegals off all of our social programs,

-make it clear that we will follow the 14th Amendment and that means there's no such thing as an 'anchor baby', never was, never will be,

-give all illegal aliens 90 days to go back home and take their money and stuff with them, after that, everything they're caught with becomes the property of the U.S. Taxpayers,

-anyone caught from the 91st day on goes home with the shirt on their backs, that's it.

Don't get trapped into a one dimensional argument about how to end illegal immigration with the surrender monkies.

You'll see the same guys, that claim there's no economically feasible way to stop illegal immigration, get their arguments all shot to hell day after day, year after year here on FR.

They keep coming back looking for someone new that doesn't know their game.

Any one of these guys could have played Bill Murray's part in 'Ground Hog Day'!

LOL!
