so where are the walls to china, canada, japan and germany ?

here is a bit stuff for you to read (even when i doubt that you understand much from it)

More than 40% of all illegal immigrants com by plane

Anchor Babies

5 facts about illegal immigration

the reality about illegal immigrants in the us

just ignorants will believe that a wall will make things better.
it just makes more unnecessary costs and does not even touch the roots of the problems usa has.
Another idiot pops pops up.

I was replying to a post by Crocket and tarriffs on Mexico.

Of course, it would be great if other countries had a similar high tarriff to stop them to stop Third World bosses exploiting cheap labour and dumping their goods in America.

A Wall won't stop illegal migrants coming in by plane, it's not designed to.

Anchor babies can return with their parents up till the age of 18, then they can apply for a work visa to remain in the US.

5 facts about migrants. Most are poor, or they wouldn't live in the poorest areas, most are in poorly paid jobs or they wouldn't be employed, many don't speak English, many don't work at all and some are on benefits. Look at any area of high migrant population and you see poverty, crime, a different society and culture.

Or are you going to try to persuade us they all make above the average wage?
