A Bigger 

Border Wall?

There are some who mistakenly believe we need a bigger border wall along the southern border. At times I’ve watched the “Border Patrol” series on the “Justice Network” (channel 68-2). There are existing walls where needed. The vast dry empty spaces limit attempts at illegal crossings. The Border Patrol does its job.

Reports tell about tunnels under the existing walls. Many fly to America on Tourist Visas, find a job, and never return. Other reports tell about those who are smuggled in by ships that avoid the land border.

Instead of squandering $25 Billion on a “Maginot Line” just improve existing security along the land border, improve the Coast Guard, and better control the hiring practices of businesses and corporations. This should cost less and not increase the costs of building supplies nationwide.
