The solution to the problem of illegal immigration is very easy. You find them all and you deport them.

That is the first step, then secure the border, 6 month detention for anyone caught crossing the border illegally. End all handouts to illegals.

Problem solved.

If we allowed immediate deportation for illegals, required employers to use e-Verify, and start closing down the employment opportunities for illegals, then we might get a handle on this problem.

A fence on the border only stops some illegal entry. It doesn't stop visa overstays and people already in the country. There will still be people making it in over the border as long as there is a good chance for employment in the U.S.
