    Border Wall

    http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20061026...o_061026183406

    Calderon said the fence would be expensive to US taxpayers and lead to more Mexican deaths. Some 400 Mexicans died trying to cross the border last year, he noted.
    Why doesn't he focus on improving his own country instead of bitching about ours? It's evidently so bad over there that people will die trying to get out.

    I've always wondered why we don't work more with Mexico to get their country to be not such a $hithole.

    Does their government not want help? Do they like things the way they are?

    Wouldn't have to worry about people risking their lives to get out of there if they didn't want to leave.

    I dont think that they care that they are risking their lives to get out. But once they are in the US they get to live here illegally, get a fake SS# and live off of our $$$.

    they are corrupt on massive levels. they already have the means to help their citizens but it benefits them more to funnel everyone into America while packing their own pockets full.

    Yeah, you've all seen Desperado, right? Mexico is like that, but with less Antonio Banderas and Salma Hayek.
    ... that's not food.

    As much as I gripe about our government, at least it's not like theirs.

    what are the odds that some of the labor to put up the fence/wall will be done by the very types we're trying to "keep out"

    i'm all for the fence/wall
