The u.s.a needs to secure the border not only from immigrants but from narcos. the drug war also needs to be dealt with. if you allow every person to come here if they are willing to work then why not just buy all the countries and make a super u.s.a country? Should the u.s.a only take hard worker and leve the even more poor disabled and uneducated in their poor countries??? Lets be fucking real here!

I'm being real. Absolutist positions don't work in real life, because life is not black or white. It's not absolutely secure border
or absolutely no legalization, it's secure enough border
and sensible legalization.
We need a border secure enough to stop most crossers, but not expensive enough to rival Afghanistan military spending that contributes to the ballooning national debt.
Do you think that countries will run out of their hard workers if USA lets them in? Absolutely not. People like to stay together with their family, relatives, and friends who they grew up with and share language & culture with. Most actually have high enough pride of their country to stay against all odds. People emigrate from their countries because they are desperate, have the opportunity, or both.
If I weren't desperate, why the hell would I move to a place where the people look very different, speak a language entirely foreign to me, follow different customs, eat different food, and not always treat me as equal? You were raised an American but I was not, so you might not understand fully how difficult it is for an adult foreigner to adjust to life in America.
