Obama to take executive action on immigration

:lamo
Isnt that the job of a defensive wall? To stop enemies?

As I noted, you argue from absolutes to hide the anemic quality of your position. There are no absolutes. Presuming them is stupid.
 
List the top ten issues since Obama has stole office and mark the one he resolved. He is regarded as the worst president in 70 years.

Nobodies talking about "enemies" or a militarily defensive wall. Illegal immigrants a foot walking into America and planting themselves.

"....the Great Wall failed to stop enemies, including in 1644

I blame the Ming Dynasty's near-criminal underutilization of drones and surveillance aircraft in patrolling the wall...
 
And also using criminal labor, slave labor. And the wall ultimately failed.

We already have a vast fence.

Really? How so. Border patrol budget has constantly been on the rise, and so have immigration and customs enforcement. We are constantly putting more and more money into it. How much is enough?

The better option is to eliminate the welfare state. Few will come if all have to work.

This is a truism that has been known since the fall of the Roman Empire, and before....You can not have an open border, along side a welfare state. It just will not work, unless destroying the existing society is the goal.
