Can you support that with a link because that doesn't make sense unless you contend that the US hasn't been growing over the years.
Doesn't make sense to you maybe
Not all sectors of the economy grow at the same rate
If there is less demand for illegal immigrant labor there will be fewer illegals coming here
That doesn't mean that the country and economy aren't growing. It means that the sectors that employ illegals aren't as lacking the labor that they once were.

Well give us the reasons you think
LOL. Dude. I've got like 12 pages before I need to answer a question from you simply using YOUR standard. And you still haven't even fricking answered 4 of mine!
Oh. But just to help you. If the reasons aren't permanent reasons, then you can't use them to support a "trend" dumb arse.

The US population grew by .7% in most recent numbers.
Mexico's by 1.3%.
When you are THAT wrong, I'm not fricking holding your hand.

He is right. But population growth in Mexico has been trending downward for a decade so there is that.

Knowing the reason the numbers are going down isn't as important as first acknowledging that they are in fact going down
This might be some of the worst logic I’ve ever seen.. holy shite dude

Looked it up and he is in fact right
But the growth in Mexico has been slowing which could certainly be a factor

300k is the number apprehended. It much safer to legally fly, drive or walk across the border.
There are natural barriers, fences, and manpower to prevent illegal crossings. The wall does not address the real issues which is overstays.
It is all political on both sides.

Funny part is. I know what poor old P'man did. He quickly pulled up a growth rate graph on Mexico and ran with it to reply to me but didn't examine closely.
P'man likes his graphs. His ability to delve beneath them?
Not so great.

If I showed you 1 minute of a basketball game do you think that would give you more information than half of the game? The whole game?

Then your dumbass thread is dumb.
Start a thread about something meaningful like visa overstay invaders. WTF is wrong with you?
