Why is that so many fail to meet the requirements for asylum?  If you want to let more millions in, do you really still expect to provide government programs to cover all of their needs? How exactly will that work? [/quote]

Asylum is rightly a very narrow definition and should remain that way [/quote]

But international law requires that we let everyone make their case, so they are coming. [/b] What we really need is more detention facilities and a rapid adjudication system.  That will be more effective and more humane deterrent than a wall.[/quote]

No, it doesn't. There has to be a documented knowledge of a military conflict or political/sex minority/religion minority oppression BEFORE asylum seekers are let in. That's how foreign countries' citizens get asylum quotas. 
Otherwise the whole world will be here claiming asylum and living in the US until their case is processed. [/quote]
