Mostly because people still want to come to the United States. Hopefully they always will.

I didn't say pay more taxes. I'm saying the federal government needs to pay the costs for policing illegal immigration. This is a federal issue, not a local issue. The FBI and ATF and DHS doesn't come to Lincoln, California, and hand out parking tickets. Local law enforcement would love to help out here, but someone needs to pay for it.
I would be fine with my local police department to help with immigration issues. I would love this. However, we have a very small police department that is already understaffed. We cannot devote 30% of our resources to enforcing federal law. That's why we have federal law enforcement.

So Trump needs to step up deporting those who got in. /QUOTE]
Trump is the kind of person that likes to beat his chest, talk loudly, make promises, throw lost of money around, but in the long run nothing gets done. He actually came into office, took a system that was working well enough, and fucked everything up, cost us a lot of money, and made us look stupid. He actually have "tent camps" where we imprison children. WTF?

Yep. We need to crack down on businesses that do this.
We can start with Trump's hotels. Seems they have hired illegals recently.

Walls do not work. The majority of illegals who come to the US don't come to the US through the desert in the middle of the night. They come on here on vacation and do not leave.
