OK. then produce a plan that works. Talk is great, but you come up with a plan that will work. You believe the people who have been doing this for 200 years aren't anywhere near as smart you are, so go ahead. Put out a plan that is workable and will succeed. A plan that the US Border Patrol hasn't already tried.
Just saying liberals want an open border is not a plan. Heck, its not even a truth.

Yes, I would like a more or less open border, as we have had for100 years with Canada. That solution is effective, cordial, and workable.
Is there a problem you see with the US-Canadian border? If we could do that with Mexico sometime in the next 25 years, would that be a bad thing?

Get real, I've given a plan yet you far left liberals demonize any plan that would close the border. Why, because you want to maintain an open border. Look at every liberal rebuttal at closing the border, it can't be done or it cost to much and how are you going to fund it. All BS, you liberals continue to disguise the truth that you want an open border. It is so fucking obvious, give it up.





There you go, you want an open border, I rest my case. At least you admit you want an open border. The rest of you far left liberals want to play BS with threads like this to make people think you far left liberal want an solution but in reality you want an open border. But I do not want an open border and I'm honest about it. And your at least the first person to be honest that you want an open border. But I say close the border. Period.

Wait.. are you proposing that we actually work on correcting the root cause of the problem? Shut the front door! That makes too much sense.
Legalizing drugs in this country would also help in that regard. This also makes too much sense.Also, with a decent economy in Mexico the drug trade would die down.
Let me guess.. you think all of the "far left liberals" want an open border, right? lol.. you're like a broken record.

Yeah, thanks for the riveting conversation. Always stimulating.






Fair enough then. I guess we just don't see walls in the same manner. I have a wooden privacy fence around my house. To keep folks out that I don 't want running through my yard. And the neighbors dog who had a habit of dropping his loads in my yard instead of his owner's yard.
On paying for the wall, well, how far would what taxpayers already spend towards illegals, go towards builiding the fence? I mean, the illegals are already costing us, although they be hidden costs. Would any savings due to a fence be worth the time and treasure over the long haul? Seems to me the fence would actually pay for itself with time.
But again what worries me is after the fence was built, any effort to go after employers would be stopped, BECAUSE we no longer need to do so due to the existence of a fence.I have no doubt this is how this would play out since neither party seems to want to stop the illegal flow, each with their own reasons.
But I still say the most effective means of stopping the flow would be to go after the employers hard and fast. With teeth in the sanctions. But the Pubs are afraid they might hurt their sacred business lobby, and that business would have to pay more than slave labor wages. I am suprised that the Cons have not added a new argument for using illegal labor. That if we don't allow business to use that labor, those jobs too would go to China.![]()




No action short of SLAUGHTER can stop those seeking to improve or sustain life for themselves and their families. The far right of course would be happy to employ such means BUYING the passage of what ever law necessary to justify their actions.
INSTEAD considering the employable level of skills involved currently a good first step to would be to offer green cards to all who come to our shores BUT make sure they are TAXED as is are rest of AMERICAN labor.
The far right right has reached the zenith of PRETENTIOUSNESS and has nowhere to go but down..
Laws are purchased-Justice with blood.






I don't understand why some Libs want an open border with Mexico. We know what it yields. It hurts the working American. Well it doesn't seem the modern Liberal cares anymore about our working folks than those dastardly Pubs.
When did the Dem Party STOP being the party of the common man? Don't look like the common man has any representation in D.C, IF he ever did. He is today even more of a pawn to be used. Looks like I gotta find myself another party, that does not exist today. The party of the common man is GONE.
ahoy Forplay,
matey, imma not going to say that yer a discredit to conservatives, because this thread makes clear yer not of their ilk.
alone, ye persist in makin' these childish and profanity laced posts, refusin' to answer the OP. ye offer up yer solution, yet adamantly refuse to provide figures fer the cost 'o yer solution.
ye know what embarssed folks do when one 'o thar own makes a moronic arguement? they shut thar pie hole...they don't wanna humiliate thar own, so they just raise thar sails, lift anchor, and withdraw from the debate. they watch silently as the hot mess that is Forplay founders about.
they don't come to support yer arguement.
they don't come to yer defense.
they just observe ye in discomfort.
me OP be a reasonable thread that sought out real answers to this whole "first clost the border" mantra that ye chant. well, ye don't get to fuckin' use that moronic line any longer, since when cornered, ye can't even profer up a solution. all ye do is get red faced and lash out at anyone who has the temerity to ask ye courteous questions as to how ye would implement such a plan.
debate doesn't interest ye, ye just want to insult others.
i encourage ye to continue postin', however, as yer an instructive example 'o a fascinatin' species that exists in legion across our great land; the obtuse, foul mouthed idealogue who does nothin' but complain, yet doesn't have the intellectual curiosity to follow thar arguements to thar conclusion.

hail Blue Doggy,
*raises his index finger*
first off, matey, imma not opposed to a wall, or a fence, or what have ye. i be askin' though what such a thing would cost, and also how much it would cost to militarize the entire 2000 foot border.
secondly, and i can't emphasize this enough...the millions 'o illigal immigrants that are in this country and costin' us monies, will remain in this country. this wall doesn't suddenly eject these folk from our lands, so they will continue to cost us the same amount 'o monies that they've been costin' us all along.
therefore, the construction 'o this wall and these military personel and the equipment that'll be deployed along this wall are now additional and new costs. thats why i be askin' how much this shall cost and how the revenue will be raised fer this project.
aye?

The issue of a closed or open border is money. The right says it can be paid for, with lost monies from immigration. The left now says fix NAFTA which is one reason for lost jobs and revenues in the US.
The reality is it can be done cheaper.
From the arguments posted, if I never knew of politics, I would think cons are democrats and libs are republican.
“If we open up our borders … we could suppress wages of middle class jobs” – Alan GreenspanWe need to suppress the wage levels of the skilled. We need to suppress wages in comparison to the “lesser skilled ” - Alan Greenspan
ahoy Michael H,
matey, folks who are advocatin' scuttlin' NAFTA are goin' off topic and avoidin' the OP.
the premise 'o the OP be that anytime solutions are offered to our illegal immigration issues, thar be a sizable portion 'o our swabbys here on USPO who demand that we "first close the border".
this thread be soley about tryin' to address that concern.
the reality that no one hath fully addressed the OP and instead wander off on tangential matters only highlights how thin the premise and conviction be 'o the "close the border" folk.
