Remaining issues:
If every illegal [[or undocumented citizen - choose your option) were removed we'd have an economic collapse considering how many work in our hotels, hospital, restaurants, factories, construction etc.
If we continue to allow the flow of illegals, especially those not work-ready into our country pulling upon our already strained social and medical infrastructure we will also see a collapse both socially and economically.
From here [[up north in Michigan) it's a bit vague as to what is coming and already occurring re. our borders and other methods of scamming the immigration systems. However, New York and Cali are already reaping the consequences and securing their voter base and support, for now.
But the good times will only roll so long. Then the bill must be paid by you know who? The elites and establishment [[including the dem elite) will for the most part remain untouched - thinking mainly about their next contract high bidder/ connections. There's big money in wall building [[what ever kind) and short-term maintenance of those seeking entry outside of our immigration systems.
Follow the rich man, or woman and the top and their you'll find MOTIVE.
So, setting aside the Trump admin et al, and Polosi et al factors where are we going from here?
