The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Terrible circumstances in certain parts of Latin America are driving people to seek asylum in the U.S., and we haven't adjusted our border processing institutions to handle that higher load. - Albaby

---------------------

Why is the only solution to provide unlimited processing facilities to handle whatever load these non citizens who self select to come here.

How about this, require asylum seekers to apply at a US embassy or whatever equivalent is in your area. Once they get their ticket punch there, they report to an official US Port of Entry. If you got the paperwork, come on in, if not stay out. The US Port of Entry will stamp you paperwork as you pass through.

Now, 100 ot 1,000 miles away if you don't have those credentials then you are here illegally and subject to immediate deportation to your home country. Maybe with a DNA sample so if we see you again, we can get progressively more medieval before sending you back. As I have said before, word will spread.

But by adhering to a process, the hordes will queue up elsewhere than the USA. Hate to overwhelm our embassies the way we have our beleaguered border agents but it IS the lesser of two problems.
