40% of illegals are those who have overstayed their visas. The largest number in this 40% group are Indians. Unless and until we have a no-holes barred deportation, al this is utterly worthless. The whole world knows if you step foot in the US, that’s enough. The Indians, in particular have turned it into an art to exploit the prospects for chain immigration aided and abetted by a large cottage industry of immigration lawyers.
We need a halt to all immigration, legal and otherwise, until we can get this whole thing sorted out. We need to seal the southern border for one thing. End foreign aid to countries between Texas and Colombia until a wall gets paid for.
That 40% canard only works by understating by a factor of 3 the total number of illegals here currently.
