Pfft, they'd peg you for a kraut instantly and ship you back to Prussia, pronto.
scaeages, I don' think there is any solution for the "home depot" problem, which is - in miniature - the entire global economy problem. Like water, money will always find a way. As for labor and services, if they can be done cheaper and still attract enough buyers to make a go of it, it will be done. Land borders won't stop it. At the higher economic levels (even those that reach to the very lowest, such as Chinese exports), no earthly barriers such as air or ocean will stop it.
Making economic immigration illegal is, imo, akin to making marijuana illegal. It's folly to outlaw a plant that nature will have grow and no amount of fear or coercion will stop the demand for. Similarly, people WILL go where they can to enable them to eat, and other people WILL search out the greatest value for their money so that have more of it to eat with. No fence, militia, or law will stop the tide for a moment.
The key is to find ways to DEAL with it, as we must deal with the sun rising in the east. If we have no sway over Mexico, we have to deal with the situation here in the U.S. It obviously won't be easy. It just as obviously must be done.
ETA: Hahahah, 3 of us simultaneously posting about €uro's deportation!
