hardly anyone actually crosses a border illegally, almost all illegal immigrants came via legal means and stayed beyond the time limits. By almost all I mean literally almost all.
The real solution is to hit employers that employ them, as how many people are in this counry illegally has very little to do with actual border control(meaning watching the border).
- ixtli 4y agoThis simple reality gets overlooked all the time. A large portion of labor in this country is undocumented. The employers, whos existence depends on this and related labor abuses, are rarely if ever held accountable and its the people DOING the work who get abused.
- AnimalMuppet 4y agoIf nopenoperope can be believed, it was 62% overstays and 38% illegal crossings in 2019. That's the majority, but it's not "literally almost all".
- michaelbrave 4y agoIt's hard to measure as those stats are for those who are newly coming and most undocumented immigrants have been here more than 10+ years, also many go under the radar. That said I did make a mistake, I had read somewhere it was above 90% but on searching again it was referring to "non-central america undocumenteds" not all as a whole. But that doesn't change that hardly anyone comes wandering through a desert and climbing over a wall/fence.
