Yah... them illegals is just takin’ jobs from all those Americans standing in line for jobs in landscaping. And fast food. American high school kids are just destitute without those fast-food jobs like when I was a kid.

Don’t get me wrong. We should have a defensible border. But we should also have a more sensible foreign worker system so that enough can come in legally to fill the jobs that are available. Right now we don’t do either. We have a porous border and a job surplus.

If we create a better controlled way for enough workers to come in legally to work, it would make the border control problem much easier to manage.

How many of those jobs are actually needed because and only because there are 20 or so millions of crimaliens that need to buy food; buy gas; buy cheap Chinese imported crap from Wal-Mart; need cars repaired; need clothes, need social services, medical care, schools, JAILERS, ...and the list goes ever onward.

IOW, if all of them (including their "anchor babies) packed up and left, how many jobs would be vacated vs haw many would still need to be filled by somebody else?

BS we need a fence, cameras, barbed wire, guards helos the works. You can let the terrorists in if you want but not I.

It's bad enough that the illegals get across but how many terror types are you willing to let into the country?

“If we create a better controlled way for enough workers to come in legally to work, it would make the border control problem much easier to manage.”

How many foreign entries would you allow legally each year?
