Well yeah, the system´s greatest concern is the system I guess. So, NATO is saving the free world from commies and russkies and yes, terrorists. The Border patrol is saving Americans from wetbacks. All this costs money. Without a threat and enemies, real or not, that money is probably more difficult to get. When it´s up to a trillion bucks a year the stakes are gigantic of course.
Wetbacks are just the syndrome. The Americans should treat the root cause first rather than going for short term solutions. They should remove the birth-right citizenship option, which is triggering this massive illegal alien influx. All the anchor babies should be stripped of their citizenship and deported back to the mafia infested shithole of Mexico.
Some years ago, the Rio Grande was diverted and a lake on the Mexican side created (A deal in which the US got Screwed, the Mexicans did not live up to their side of the bargain). One result of this is that the Rio Grande is not a grand river, but an empty creekbed, or perhaps has a trickle of water.
In any case, there are really no "wetbacks" anymore.
