You know what would end illegal immigration quicker than a wall? Getting rid of the welfare state, but the average Republican would run from that vote quicker than Usain Bolt.



Yeah, let’s hypothetical the shite out of this, why don’t we?

Hypothetically, if there were laws against the welfare state, and the Constitution said that the federal governments job was to protect the states from the welfare state would suckass libertarian Rand Paul vote to maintain the welfare state? Hypothetically, it looks like he would, immigration laws and Constitution be damned.

Guess we’ll have to pass some laws and amend the Consitution to find out if he doesn’t really give a shite about those too, huh?

The point of my argument was that there are two Senators who are unapologetically against the welfare state in almost every facet. One of them is Rand Paul and the other is Mike Lee. If everyone in the Senate held the views of these two Senators, we wouldn't have a federal welfare state. The federal welfare state, and its subsidization of state welfare systems, is what primarily attracts illegal immigrants here. Without these taxpayer subsidized incentives, we wouldn't have hordes of illegals trying to get into this country.
