Trump orders wall to be built on Mexico border

[Neo-Scholastic]

I don't know if a wall would work or not. Heck I don't even know what kind of wall we're talking about. What I do know is that illegal immigration makes many bad things worse like drug smuggling, human trafficking, the spread of disease, and low grade-level competency in schools. It's corrosive to the rule of law in both the US and Mexico and it is fundamentally unfair to law-abiding immigrants. For years and years and years politicians have either promised to something and didn't or exploited the situation for political gain. Trump isn't just doing something different; he's actually trying to do something. Whether it works or not remains to be seen.
