Don't Fence me In

I'm sure most of you have read about the Border Fence that the Gov't wants to put up to keep illegal immigrants out of the county and especially along the Texas border.

Well does the Berlin Wall ring a bell for anyone and weren't we the ones that wanted the wall torn down in the first place?

Why do we want to wall in our country? I do understand that we need to handle our immigration problem but I don't think that building a wall is really what we want. How do you think that will look and more importantly do you really think it will work?

How about if we charge ( and a big amount) a fee to the people that employ illegal immigrants so that it is too costly to employ them-maybe they won't want to come over illegally and maybe they will want to become citizens and earn a living the way the rest of us do.

I would love to hear your comments.
