As long as US residents/citizens hire illegal immigrants, the US-Mexico border will remain porous. The solution is NOT a 2,000 mile long fence or wall manned with armed guards ordered to shoot anyone crossing. The solution is so simple even the stupid Dems and Reps in Congress could fix it by passing a law making it a federal crime, punishable by imprisonment to hire an illegal immigrant. But that would piss off the Senator's and Congressmen's constituents who hire those illegals. So they won't do that. If they do anything at all, count on it being complex and ineffective. Sound like a betting guy, don't I?
