"Walls are not economic barriers." If you say so.

Europe, China, and every other country that has had (note the past tense) walls disagrees. I am still anticipating the link that proves that only God fearin' Americans pay taxes. This link shows that a whole gob of them durned feriners pay taxes:

Repeating rhetoric does not make it factual.

So what you are saying is that you do not believe in borders at all. After all, a border is nothing more than a virtual wall that can only be crossed with the permission of the territory you are entering.

Try to enter Mexico from the south illegally and see how much they believe in open borders. Try to sneak into Japan and see how well it goes as well.

Look closer.

Now I see that you've trotted out the old standby of open borders apologists, i.e. anyone who wants a rational immigration policy, and to exert even minimal control over our porous So. border-in other words, the vast majority of Americans that have been suffering from the stupidity advocated by people like you, and affirmed by our misguided immigration policies, for the past two decades-is an ignorant Luddite.

Even though you've demonstrated-repeatedly-your ignorance of basic economics and political science.

Whatever taxes illegal aliens pay-I can only assume your referring to sales taxes, since they are working illegally, off the books-is dwarfed by the amount of taxes that they do not pay, e.g. payroll taxes, state and city income taxes, as well as the amount of public services that they utilize, e.g. public education, public hospitals, etc...

You can regurgitate the same idiotic talking points cribbed from Larry Kudlow, or Dan Heninger-or whatever clueless Republican talking head agrees with your deluded belief that importing millions of uneducated, unskilled immigrants from a third world, economically stratified hellhole is going to be a boon for the American economy, but you are not convincing anyone.

You're not convincing us that your preposterous assertions have any validity, or that you have even the most rudimentary grasp of the consequences of unfettered, third world immigration into this country.

I am not the uncultured, uncouth hick that thinks importing slave labor from Mexico-as well as all of the attendant economic and cultural maladies that plague that country-is a good idea, so I would kindly suggest that you retire the insipid attempt at sarcasm, Schecky.

First of all, you're not good at it.

Secondly, it merely serves to illustrate how vacuous your fallacious argument is.
