Hmmm.. This mess needs to be fixed.
1. The pull problem needs has an easy solution. All employers need to use E-verify. If anyone is busted, throw the book at them. Prosecute them on tax charges for non payment of employment taxes along with hiring aliens. If the fines bankrupt them, all the better. Examples make for awesome deterrents.
2. The push problem. The US needs to stop meddling in Latin America's internal affairs. Stop supporting civil wars to advance corporate America's agendas.
3. Define exactly what constitutes "asylum". I don't think spouse abuse or stuff US citizens go through should qualify. After all, man, charity begins at home. Fix those problems here first before going on some global crusade to fix the world's problems.
4. If someone is just looking for "a better life, " too bad. We have legions of homeless already, fix that first as well.
For example, San Francisco, that paragon of kindness won't build homeless shelters, because NIMBY. I despise hypocrisy. Just look at the huge mess over there.
