Did you know that they are going to break over 130 environmental and Governmental laws to build this fence? For what? So that more die trying to get over? So that more money (money that is ill spent as stated before) is wasted and for a fence that will not improve security? And the problem with Mexico is not that they don't have enough jobs, it's a combination of a culture that is reluctant to give up strict traditions, a government that can't control violence and corruption, and a people that can't afford a better education. I you can improve on all three of these then you can create more jobs and therefore there is no need to leave. I’ve been following this fence thing for awhile.

As for Mexico making their country more attractive to the young people, it's not that the country is unattractive, it's that there aren't enough jobs. They just need to generate a couple hundred thousand good, well-paying jobs, and the whole immigration problem will be solved almost instantaneously.

They create more problems. A guest worker program seems fair, but I think Mexico needs to find ways to make their country more attactive for their young people.

What was it-- two nights ago they shot down the failing spy satellite, and reports say it cost between $30 and 60 million to do that. I think we need to scale back a *lot* of projects. Gov't needs to have a realistic budget (say, 1/2 of the IRS' intake until all debts are paid) and stick to it, if not they're fired. Yes, I agree.

I can't believe that we are letting this happen. The whole idea of the fence is a ridiculous waste of time, money, and energy. I can’t believe that we are letting this happen.
