yeah but I was talking about attriting down the illegal population. Eventually there will be no illegals but it could take decades after a fence is built.

That may be a detail we just disagree about. I think serious enforcement on the employers would make that attrition happen very fast. It only took about ten years for the greater percentage of them to come here. If jobs dried up they would leave quickly. Handout need to dry up too. Without jobs and entitlements it costs a lot more to live here than where they came from. They would leave while they have funds to live off of back home.
