In some ways it might be better if we took over their country. They don't seem to be doing a very good job of running them.

Honestly, who here is not afraid of disease? Masses of people who can't speak the language and are going to require more forms be printed in jibberish. A wall would be the kindest thing we could do

We already did. We exported our gang-bangers to those nations. As a result, we improved those nations as we also did Iraq.

Well yeah, but other than that... and some clandestine shit... we've been like State Farm to them.

Sarge, I don't have a problem with a barrier, as long as people are let in in a legal way, and it's paid for by a tax on the wealthy, who are the main ones who benefit from keeping out illegals.

What diseases are you talking about?

Huh?

The wealthy benefit the most from having them come here. They work for pay that Americans refuse.

And the drag they put on the economy is paid for with higher insurance premiums for middle class folks and higher property taxes for schools. The wealthy don't pay disproportionately for any of that.

I'd say, on balance, the wealthy love illegal immigrants and benefit mightily from them.

Yeeeeaaaahh. I'll retract that. Don't know what I was thinking.
