Seems it would be more logical cost wise to appoint a dozen or more immigration judges to handle the backlog of asylum requests at the southern border than to spend billions on a wall. Some sort of work visa program for those just looking for work and more immigration judges to handle those wanting to flee horrible situations and come here permanently. If asylum requests meet guidelines they get temporary visas, if not they are denied..simple. Seems that would decrease the number of attempts at illegal crossings significantly. Another thing would be to do something to help improve conditions in their home countries. Something along the lines of the old Marshall Plan.
