Your policy would work I believe and create some problems on the Mexican side when Matamoros gets a half-million folks not from there, and Tiajuanna gets another half million.

Try putting the whole million plus in one place and see what sort of problems Mexico develops. Picking a location that allows for the easiest enforcement on our side also gives us a better advantage.

Still- lucrative jobs here will keep them comming so long as they are available.

I agree, which is why we need far stronger interior enforcement as well as prosecution of employers that knowingly hire illegal aliens. As an aside, this is something Bush is doing at a far greater level than any of his predecessors.
