THe same that the US has to tell us not to build a bridge, make a damn, cut on taxes, elect our own presidents, support internal war, pass laws, dictate the economical politics, etc..., etc..., etc..., but that's another 2 cents, right?
Many of the causes for inmigration are a direct consequence of US foreign politics regarding Latin America (in Guatemala alone the US has been directly responsible for overthrowing more than 4 presidents, and support an internal war that lasted over 30 years, took over 300,000 lives and maintained us in poverty).
If the US wants to build the wall, go ahead, do it for God sake, but don't be that innocent to beleive that the wall alone will stop illegal immigration, it will be more difficult, more dangerous and more people will die trying to get to the so called "american dream", just please, don't fool yourselves. Maybe, while the wall can keep out of the US the illegal immigrants, at the same time it can keep out of Latin America the US's illegal impositions.
The way I see it, and the way the US treat us, long ago we are part of the US and Gerorge W. Bush ir our president, Berger is just kind of a mediocre Governor.
