Build a wall on the border? No thanks, says San Diego. (Darrell Issa too.)

… While Trump and other GOP presidential candidates push for a giant wall between the United States and Mexico, San Diego is literally building a bridge. In December, an international group of developers, which includes real estate magnate Sam Zell, plans to open a pedestrian walkway that bypasses the regular U.S. border crossings and directly connects San Diego to Tijuana’s international airport.

Meanwhile, all five members of San Diego’s congressional delegation, including stalwart Republican Reps. Darrell Issa and Duncan Hunter, have successfully advocated for the $500 million in additional funds needed to expand the main border crossing. And the city’s new mayor, Kevin Faulconer (R), traveled to Tijuana during his first week in office in 2014 and has called for comprehensive immigration reform. …

From your posting

The leadership of this world has gone stark raving mad and is literally begging for WWIII.

June 25, 1950 was when WW-III began. The US lost almost 100,000 KIA in that war. It wasn't cold.

Some people live in one country, and work in the other-all nice and legal.

There are also plenty who live in TJ, cross the border daily, and work illegally in San Diego. They cross the border every day at rush hour.

There would be no need for the expansion of facilities at the border if these thousands were removed from the queue each day.

No one crosses the border at San Ysidro without proper documents

they may cross legally, but then partake in many activities that their visas do not authorize, such as schooling children, employment, fraudulent welfare and health care

Mexico has far better “health care” than we have.

Their doctors are not fronts for big pharma.
