We're all descended from migrants, even the native Americans walked over here. No one originated from here. So, first world problems. A country the size of the U.S. having less than a half billion people is pretty impressive, actually.

So I should work to pay taxes for other country's citizens to live here for free?

In so few words, frick you

If they do anything other than bring them back across the boarder, they should pour them into small towns where a lot of people have left and tell them to build up the city and make it a functioning city and if they do that after so many years they can take the test to become US citizens (they get to skip the rest of the process), if they don't they will be put on a plane and brought back south of the border.. Someone in South America.

That could end up being a win-win maybe.

But the fact that its a first world problem because no one originated from here is dumb. There is no way to 100% secure the border. There are tunnels, people can get here by boat from the east and west, but you need security to stop as many of them as possible.
