No, Tim - strip government of its ability to dish out welfare, and reduce its operating costs, and thus the tax burden. Anyone wonder why aren't these illegals migrating to Canada? Canada is doing quite well. Why didnt illegal immigration increase during the 2008/2009 crisis? Because it was a colder couple of years? Chicago has lots of illegals, and it gets cold around here, every year. Is Canada not an exceptional country in the eyes of God?
What makes this such a difficult issue for some? Is it that this is a racially charged issue? Perhaps it is the perceived threat to our sovereignty (some would easily argue that it is a legitimate threat to our sovereignty)? But this isn't by accident, and those concerns will not go away with a wall. As I've said many times before, these people overcome much bigger obstacles than walls, and it doesnt stop them today.
Not to change the topic, but another charged issue was the gay marriage thing... So many people where tied up in why a man could not be married to another man, or why such a thing would be permitted... The question people should have been asking is WTF does the government have to do with marriage? Why is it necessary to apply for a license, and why is common-law marriage even possible? Why does the government get to decide who gets what slice of the pie when someone divorces? What does tax burden have to do with marital status? - yup, boat missed entirely on that one. Gays marry, and government is still involved - win win, right?
...and so, as I see it, the boat is being missed on the illegal alien issue too. Sorry to make people endure my babbling on the topic... Best of luck with your wall, and catching that political pendulum. Always know that if Trump cant get it done, its those evil democrats that got in his way.
