Do you think people should be allowed to come into our country illegally?

If not, then what's so bad about the wall?

Full disclosure: not really a liberal.

People already aren't allowed to come into our country illegally and are doing so at the lowest rate ever recorded. It's not a problem worth driving the deficit up by billions of dollars, which lets be honest, is how the thing will actually get paid for, if it ever does.

Illegal immigrants use state and federal services (trains, emergency rooms, gas/electricity, etc) but they don't pay tax money.

Estimates by Americans for Legal Immigration (ALIPAC) show that American taxpayer resources worth about $125 billion are stolen by illegal immigrants.

When people move into the US legally, they are put on a tax registry, and they can contribute to society. There's nothing wrong with immigration, only illegal immigration.

Because not many people do come in illegally. The cost of a relatively small number of illegal immigrants is much less than the cost of "the wall".

it's expensive as hell. And we're not paying for it, and Mexico has made it pretty, pretty clear that there's no way they're paying for "that fucking wall." But let's assume that America just magically got a huge inheritance from a wealthy parent and could pay for the wall. Where the hell would we put it? The U.S.-Mexico border is about 2,000 miles. As George W. Bush's Secure Fence Act demonstrated, it's kinda tricky even building a fence along a 700-mile stretch of the border. You have to build through people's property, build around geography, oh, and "waive 36 laws to build the fence, including the Endangered Species Act, the Safe Drinking Water Act, and the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act," Oliver said.

Okay, so, assuming it's financially and physically possible to build this glorious wall, would the thing even work? Nope! "Nearly half of all the unauthorized migrants now living in the United States entered the country legally through a port of entry such as an airport or a border crossing point using visas they then overstayed. A wall can't stop that," Oliver said. "That's like wearing a condom to protect from head lice. You could do that. But that's not really how you keep the thing you're worried about from happening."
