Put military along the border

Now the lawmakers want our hospital staff to go to work for the Border Patrol. Then comes along the ACLU, who says no, no, it's against the law. Just stop and think how important the illegals are to this economy. Talk about jobs – they make jobs for lawyers, judges, jail attendents, food stores, fuel stations … the list could be several pages long, but let's cut it short. Bring our military home and put them on our borders. As people can see, the fences were a joke. Better yet, cut the support that feeds Mexico would be the smart thing to do. The people at the hospital are overworked as it is.
