Imigration in America

[kandrathe]

Do you really think a fence along the Mexican border will accomplish anything? What effect will that have on people who simply come here legally for travel, or on student visas, and then 'forget' to leave? We have miles of ocean blocking our border with Cuba, yet they still seem to get here.

You protect the border against those who have intentions other than legal work. Cubans who get here are automatically afforded special immigration status.

The biggest disincentive for students, and travelers remaining after their visas expire would be the lack of a means of income without legal documentation.
