I'm pretty much correct. If you wanted solutions, you would study. You don't.
I have presented my solutions many times. But, for you it came down to TLDR. All we can talk about in even ten or twelve paragraphs are the very bare bones basics. In other threads as well as this one, you refused to READ the damn thing.
You keep talking about an "open border type." Can you demonstrate, by name and actions some of these people you are hurling that accusation at? Or, are you creating a straw man argument?
.....
Nope. I can't take your pretense of being unaware of the Open BOrder types seriously.
You don't have to convince me, son. You have to convince the voters and the politicians. We barely hung onto the governorship here the last election and now politicians are jumping ship, announcing they will run as Democrats the next time.
They heard your argument. Fewer and fewer are buying it. You should do some serious study before engaging with me. In the book The Art of War, Sun Tzu wrote:
"Know your enemy and know yourself, find naught in fear for 100 battles. Know yourself but not your enemy, find level of loss and victory. Know not thy enemy nor yourself, wallow in defeat every time."
You know NOTHING about your opposition. Hell, you won't even take a week of your time to probe the edges. You don't know yourself; all you do is repeat the same canard as if repetition will make it true. So, one the world's most renown military strategists has predicted defeat for you.
THat people are not buying my argument, does not mean that it is not a good argument.
It's not a good argument. A wall would not work in America because it would be like closing the barn door after the cows got out. When Kamala Harris can be a serious contender for president, you cannot sustain the wall idea in the de facto democracy. That is just reality.
A fair point. But there are still more "horses" "leaving" ie illegals entering. So, even though it is very late in the game, stopping that flow is still a worthwhile endeavor.
Besides, when Trump began saying he'd take money from Socialist Security and the military - having lied about making Mexico pay, he torpedoed the whole wall idea. It's imploding even as we argue.
He "lied" about funding? Wow. A politician never did that before. He pulled money from somewhere else? Wow. A politician never did that before.
You don't give a shit about any of that, and neither do I. And neither does anyone else really.
You still have a problem with foreigners and if you fail to follow a path toward the restoration of Liberty, you will only be left with one path left to protect yourself with - and you have tried harder than the left to close that door.
1. My "problem" with foreigners, is that I want to advance the interests of Americans and America, and not "foreigners" especially at the expense of Americans and America.
2. "Path"? Not really. I hope it does not come to that, and regardless if it does, more "foreigners" will not make it easier.

You are extremely naive; always sabotaging your own arguments. If more people are leaving than are entering as you claim, that negates your argument for the need of any wall.
Secondly, you damn right I care about Trump lying. You might be young right now, but if you were a veteran or a retiree and Trump was about to cut your livelihood, you would take a hard look at what the real options are AND you would look at the problem a bit more objectively.
If building a wall were to cost those on a fixed income more of their money (lots of Americans already choose between medicine and food as it is) they would forego the wall. Ditto for the military. We might be going to war soon... so cut the military budget for a freaking wall???
The needs and interests of the American people is that the Republic be preserved. Your unalienable Rights are worth something; the Right to own private property is worth preserving; the ability to be self sufficient and self reliant have a tremendous value; the Right to privacy was important enough for the founders to go to war over. All of this should be important to you.
The laws you want enforced ultimately lead to citizenship. Once those people become citizens, they ARE going to vote you into oblivion. The courts are shooting down the wall idea - as you just witnessed yet another defeat for Trump and his funding schemes. Now, he's created two more groups of pissed off Americans - the military and the AARP crowd - which is no small voting bloc.
