Family Feud at the Mexican border
Question:
Name something you will never see at the border.

Extend the border twelve miles into Mexico. Build two walls. Build 24 ports of entry w secure fenced corridors. Turn the rest of the space into an artillery and bombing range - free fire zone.

How appropriate that the immigration policies of the USA have reduced to memes while still retaining accurate representations of the facts.
In fact, if I may paraphrase a solution that comedian Ron White came up with, we might actually have a viable solution that not only solves the border crisis, but could actually allow politicians like Mitt Romney, Nancy Pelosi, Mitch McConnell, and Chuck Schumer to continue fleecing the American public while actually solving a problem...
Quote:
Let's tale some of this tax money we keep laundering through the war in Ukraine and use it to BUY Mexico - fix it up - and FLIP IT!
Then, we send down some painters and landscapers (repatriating countless illegal aliens that are already in the USA.
We sell Mexico to a country that can put a ton of cash down, but you know they can't make the payments...
...like Peru. Peru has billions and billions of US dollars, they do. In cash in banks all over Peru. It's our cocaine money they tricked us out of.
Now, we get all of our cocaine money back, billions of dollars, billions.
Then, we finance the balance of Mexico to Peru - we let them get behind on the payments - before long, we repossess Mexico and now, we have Mexico - free and clear.
New paint
New shrubs.
with all that cocaine money, we start buying countries south of Mexico. We buy them all. We buy Belize, Honduras, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Costa Rica, and every time we buy one of those countries, that border wall gets a little shorter until eventually, we buy back the Panama Canal, which we built, anyway.

Problem solved - and all the while - the single source no bid government contracts can continue to get "won" by friends of politicians like Mitt Romney, Nancy Pelosi, Mitch McConnell, and Chuck Schumer
...they get to take credit for doing something
...their high dollar constituents can continue to profit
...jobs are created
Everybody wins

I spend a lot of time in Mexico, mostly Baja but Mexico none the less. What we have now is the result of combining two cultures, the corrupt Spaniards with the bloodthirsty Aztecs.
I am convinced it will take the second coming of Jesus Christ to clean up Mexico.

Funny what even a flimsy border fence can do...
Quote:
EL PASO, Texas (Border Report) — Migrant crossings have plummeted in a mile-long stretch of Downtown El Paso where the Texas Army National Guard has set up concertina wire and portable fencing along the Rio Grande.
The guard began setting up the barrier last week at a gap in the border wall west of the Paso del Norte port of entry. In the space of eight days, the barbed wire has nearly reached a second port of entry and chain-link fence anchored by sandbags extends even farther. The result is that asylum seekers can no longer walk across ankle-deep water in the Rio Grande and turn themselves in to waiting Border Patrol agents in that area.

That dog don’t hunt. I’ve flipped some houses and I’ve been to MX. MX will cost way too much to repair the destroyed roof, drywall, floor, and substructures than what it is worth. Besides, China is doing “upgrades” as we speak.
