Illegal Immigrants

[Pat Mustard]

Why not just partner with Mexico and work towards improving it's infrastructure, that seems like the practical approach. The reason your getting so many people seeking asylum is because their families can't survive in Mexico, so no matter how many laws you pass people from Mexico are still going to try and get to the US. So why not address the problem and work towards improving Mexico so the people there don't have to flee to the US. This would not only solve the immigration issue it would also be a great humanitarian move.

Most of the asylum seekers are coming from a bit further south, the likes of Honduras, Guatemala or Nicaragua. The biggest thing they've got in common is that they've been recipients of the US "let's fuck everything up" foreign policy for this last century & more.
