[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At this point I'm thinking we have no option but open borders. There is zero will for border integrity. Why fight it?Let's make it legal to employ whomever for pennies (there is zero will to enforce labor law) and enjoy it. I'm also in favor of a high level of state surveillance to fend off attacks such as those that took/take place in Europe on a regular basis due to their disgruntled immigrant population and porous borders. Perhaps stop processing people. Just collect fingerprints , names, country of origin and a a DNA swipe as they stroll through the checkpoint? A Republican who thought both sides could work together for sensible immigration reform, but now doesnt care.[/quote]

I'm a Democrat and sick of it.  Some counties in the DC area have had enormous impacts from illegal immigration.  Politicians think it's just fine to have the vast majority of costs on the rumps of local tax payers.  D-MD-Cummings, Hoyer.  D-VA- Connolly.  Connolly is great on border rants and b1tching about $ 4rth Parade but what is it doing for his constituents?  https://connolly.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=3671   https://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2019/07/12/house-hearing-migrants-connolly-tom-homan-tsr-vpx.cnn/video/playlists/this-week-in-politics/

local taxes https://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/taxes/real-estate/tax-rates

New idea- ask the newbie Wexton to float a bill in the USA House of Representatives to reimburse local counties for the costs of educating and social services for unaccompanied minors released too sponsors by the federal government.  Maybe there could be a new "squad" of Dems from districts that incllude the top 50 receiving counties.

If Fairfax and PG got 5000 that's at least 15,000 annually out of local budgets or $75,000,000.  Feds give 175/UAM so that's $875,000 and locals minus any piddle from the states pick up at least $75m.

MOCO got less but is owed at least 65m.
