I live 13 miles from the border, not far from Nogales Arizona/Sonora. My home has been broken into by illegals. A neighbor, just last week, was awakened in the middle of the night with his wife to find illegals in the kitchen helping themselves to their food. This kind of crap happens day in - day out. People (like me) who live out in the ranching country don't dare go out without a sidearm on their hip. Don't talk to me about "economic" solutions. The situation is too far out of hand and too severe to wait on such "incremental" solutions. If you lived here, you would agree.

hi midas , immigration? they do have problems and it should be better. i use to work with some in chgo. and they always said,with my american pension i can live like a king there.
our dollar is worth a lot to them , their exchange is great for them to buy all they need for everyday living and plus some.
so the immigrant that does the work for the farmers here , etc. go home pretty for their pay. the work on peace work or they can chose regular pay. heck they play the dollar machines at the casinos. some even take less money under the table to avoid taxes. i saw it done.
