[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Apparently some of you either don't know or don't care that closing the border will hurt American businesses and probably just make the problems even worse.  [/quote]
Please share YOUR solution...[/quote]

There are lots of things that could be done.  We don't have a shortage of jobs, unemployment is at a low, we hire them anyhow, that's who's picking your vegetables, who's working the grill at your favorite diner, who cleans your office, who's building the office building a block over.  So how about reforming the worker visa process for starters?  And thereby get them legally paying more into taxes et cetera?  Let more workers come legally, shutting down a lot of the human smuggling and other activity?  Less people asking for asylum?  And how about legalizing marijuana, shutting down a lot of the drug smuggling?  And how about actually addressing the opioid problem to reduce some of the other illegal drug smuggling?  And how about so many other things that would reduce the need for illegal crossings?  And how about we start working more effectively with El Salvador and Honduras to stabilize those countries so that less people are trying to flee them?

But no, let's ignore those and a thousand other possible things that could be done and just focus solely on building a wall.   :roll: [/quote]

Good luck with your laundry list. It worked oh so well for your last President, didn’t it? Shut Down the Border - illegal invasion stopped pronto. What’s not to like? Or are you really for Hillary’s “open border” policy?[/quote]

I hope he does shut it down because the economic devastation let loose will piss off businesses big time.  Trump is his own worst enemy. Let him wreak havoc on all the people who depend on the thousands of legal border crossings that happen every day and see what happens to his poll numbers.  idiot.[/quote]
