Not a dem but definitely not a MAGAtard, but I'd start with securing the


border, not with a fence along the entire distance, but with a combination of physical barriers and other forms of surveillance - aircraft, drones, cameras, etc. I'd then overhaul the processes through which we greet migrants at the border. I might not let as many in, I might work more closely with Mexico, which retains about 0 of the migrants that pass through. I'd get rid of the red tape and make stay or no decisions very quickly, I'd step up deportations.

Then I'd develop a robust guest worker program where we could get the labor we need and tax the income. I'd also totally overhaul the H1B mess Bush II created (and Obama and others exacerbated). We need more skilled workers, the types of people that will start businesses but are now going to Canada.

Just a few starter ideas. What would you do? I know Tommy has no real ideas and doesn't really understand how human (labor) and capital flows work and what impact those from the south need to have on our economy.
