It won?t work.So long as folks can come here and realize the dream of living a better life people will continue to come. We need a sensible immigration policy, not a fence.

Well it wont stop everybody, but no laws stop everyone who is willing to break them. what its going to do is stop the flood of them who get over here easily, and it will also stop the Mexican Military from incroching on American Soil.
<span style="font-family:Book Antiqua">Well, hopefully, this fence will be built before everyone at my school goes by the names of Pablo, Juan and Jose.</span>
And it's hilarious to hear mexicans on the radio yelling how bad of an idea it is. They just want to take over our country. Go ruin your own country again, not ours.
<span style="font-family:Book Antiqua">I don't think they had a real chance of ruining our country. I don't like hearing people say, "Those filthy Mexicans are taking our jobs!" What jobs? C'mon now! We, American-born citizens, wouldn't mow lawns (unless we're teenagers during the summer time) or work out in the fields! If Mexicans take those jobs, let them take 'em. We won't do those jobs anyway.</span>
Yeah I defiently agree. We need to stop illegal immigration, but without illegal immigrants alotve jobs wouldnt get done and would be alot more expensive.

I know a fence won't solve everything but it's a start.

OH MY LORD. Tell me you guys did NOT just say mexicans are doing the jobs nobody else wants.Ok first of all, who did those jobs before all this immigration? Americans! We WILL do them.People WILL do those jobs, there is just one problem: the stupid farmers and such only pay low wages that only illegals will work for. If we cut off the illegals, then those farmers wouldn't be able to do slave wages, and raise them. Then Americans will take those jobs.Americans WILL do the work, you just have to PAY at least a modest salary. If we cut off illegals, and raised the wages, then Americans would almost HAVE to take those jobs, and that helps our economy.All that unemployment in America. Right now they say "I don't have a job because illegals take it for lower wages." Ditch the illegals and raise the wages, then what's their excuse? Nothing. They'll take the job.
No, the labor will be alot more expensice cause A)There will fewer workers, meaning they will have to work more and they will want more money B)The Americans who do take the job will want more money than the illegel immigrants. But your right, we would HAVE TO take those jobs. And they are nowhere close to be discriminated like black people. Your insane for saying that.

Americans will take the jobs, like someone said it will be teenagers. but there are also legal immigrants here who will take the low paying jobs. I'm not against having Americanos in the US, but what I am against is the fact that they don't speak English, and don't pay Taxes. If you live in this country you should speak its language, and you should have to give most your money to the retarded clowns in Washington, just like everyone else.

It's not like it's a six foot wooden fence, at least not as I have understood it. If it's the one they were talking about, it would be actually two layers. People could get over one, but you would know they're there because of motion detection. And they could then be taken care of.How does that not stop people? And don't say, "Because life is so much better here!"Also, Mexico is not in South America.
Well if it's only 700 miles and costs 2+ billion dollars to make, it BETTER have some serious stuff on it.
