"If the 1986 amnesty was a success, why do we have 12-20 million illegals in the US today?"

I'll repeat myself...because Congress failed to set in place a mechanism that allowed people to come, work, and go home; A.K.A., a guest worker program.

The 1986 amnesty, coupled with an aggressive guest worker program would have avoided the millions of illegal aliens we have in the country today.

A guest worker program IS border control.
