The only way we make it less palatable for those coming from the south is to change the conditions in their home countries that make them want to leave. That is not within our power.

America allows more legal immigration than any other country in the world. Difficult process, yes. Allowing more of it? I'm not sure, but I'm open to it.

Illegal crossers make an effort to cross the desert because they are desperate, but also because there is nothing stopping them from trying. There is no physical barrier, and they are often led to believe that they only need to travel a few miles to safety. The fence I described? I fail to see how it would be easily breeched on a regular basis without conspirators in the border patrol assisting them.
