9:02 pm
a former member of the minutemen , one of the volunteer groups that started their own border patrol's to try to help stop illegal immigration. >> caught between two governments. so many politicians pontificate. john: the border fence to not cover the old border. >> as smart smuggler is not going to go to where the security is. he will take the weak spot. john: lots of weak spots like this and guarded tunnel that led him what to mexico. >> you are in mexico now. you're in violation. john: even where there was fans, people vetiver. they bring ladders like this one we found lying right next to the fans', they cut holes in the fence. this one has been passed, but it does not matter how high fences if you can cut holes in it.
9:03 pm
john: many illegals are caught sneaking through, they are sent back to mexico, many media the sneak back to america. it is where the jobs are, this man says. >> ne, two, three, four, five times. john: four years later, fewer cross illegally because the mexican economy has done better. we build bigger, stronger fences. john: as the border patrol now we are here? >> oh, yes. john: an hour later they showed up. >> filming a segment. i intend donald -- ten donnelly. john: after that the left them alone. once more fences. >> is this your ideal fans? >> this is good. it forces people who want to smuggle something to go to a high point where law-enforcement border patrol agents can easily see they have been interdicted. we ought to secure it. john: a problem with the current fans.
9:04 pm
>> here is this biggeffective miti dance. impervious, s it just hands. this right here is absurd. >> despite the billions we have spent, there are still lots of balls in the fence. especially the older part. >> this looks like a pretty good-sized already your. >> this is an area that we have volunteers who came down with a welding track and well that up these holes. i mean, it is patchwork. >> i'm touching mexico. john: not that hard to get over the fence. drug dealers build ramps. this car happens to get stuck. kennedy found it was pretty easy to climb the fence. >> you could totally get over this. john: in fact, there were >> pointy. >> easiir to cross from the other side.
9:05 pm
jjhn: thank you for going there and clearly there are problems with both sounds. but proponents of the wall say, hey, this deters people. this keeps a lot of people out. >> not really because there are only 33 percent of the border that is actually protected by some kind of fencing. as you saw, -- john: suspect at downtown every 2,000 miles in the mexican border. >> just the southern border. john: the other part is harder to get to, mountainous. >> it is mountainous, boris. there were holes all over the part of the fence that we saw. arizona, texas, you're going to see the same thing. it is the -- chain is only as strong as its weakest link. the chain is only effective as pistol. john: this is the age of cool, amazing technology. i would think with drones, the cameras, president bush found it a virtual fans. >> he did promise a virtual
9:06 pm
fans, but it was costly, still requires a lot of border patrol manpower. john: they give up on it. >> they did. it was costing billions of dollars. the gao, a general accounting office issued several skating reports about the virtual fans because it was a boondoggle, too expensive and it was enough time to work and still require just as much if not more manpower. john: they could spend more, but most of the people who sneak in the country now, 40%. >> forty to 50%. forty to 50 percent of the people like him into this country and stayed illegally are here on student visas. john: illegal visas and then just she was there already in the country. >> they hang out and stay past their visa stamp date. john: all wall does not solve the problem. thank you. currently congress is working on an immigration reform bill. many people are optimistic that there will come up and it , but an agreement and an easier path to citizenship.
9:07 pm
i, for one, up they do. many conservatives are nervous. for years they wanted more done about thht stream of people crossing the border. >> we cannot shut that off unless we build a fence and a wall. i want to put all wall in. i designed one. >> a little bit of wire on top to provide. put a letter there. @% can also electrify this wire. the kind of current that would not kill somebody the simply be a discouraging for them to be fooling around. livestock all the time. john: immigration problem should improve, he says. >> you can take it back now. if somehow they got their economy working and got their laws working and in mexico we could pull this back and just as easily as reported in. john: former presidential candidate in colorado congressman, more security and wants other measures to deter illegal immigration. congressman, thank you for joining espirito would you do? we showed the holes in the wall3
9:08 pm
that does not look like the answer to me >> it isn't. and the reporter is absolutely correct when she says it is only as good as its weakest link. there are some places where there are not at all. it is almost a joke. for the most part it is done for the purpose offand coming to thh congress and the american people and saying, we spent hundreds of millions of dollars on the border. it is now secure. the fact is, you can spend hundreds of millions of dollars on the border and is still not will be secure. here is what can be done. all you have to do his mandate and then enforce e-rarefy. the mandated for eveey single employee. they have to simply take social security. adelle on line and it takes two minutes of the most. d.c. the person wanting a job, let they're social security number and put it and because bat-to-bat.
9:09 pm
i don't know what's wrong with it. the number is bad. if you do that, if you mandate and un force to important things , e-verify. most of this problem goes away. you say enforce. john: meaning that somebody would punish the business that hires someone without using e-verify. >> correct. or if they use it, even if they use it and still hire a person who is coming back with the wrong social security number, that could be a violation and after enforce it. john: this sounds very appealing. just one computer database where you can check. but you are a conservative. you don't trust the government. why would you trust them to run e-verify correctly? >> well, right now about 250,000 businesses use it. they use it on a voluntary basis. it is a relatively easy thing to
9:10 pm
do. we require businesses to do all kinds of things in terms of hiring practices. this is probably the easiest step in the process. a simple entry into a database. right now is like 98 percent accurate or better. john: think about that, 98 percent. 98 percent accurate sounds pretty good. and it a gao audit into dozen 11 found it was even better. 99 percent accuracy. but that means about 450,000 people who are legit get flagged as illegal. that is awful. >> first of all, they don't get the job is the issue. you know what, this is not 100 percent. it is not 100 percent.
9:11 pm
@%t it just depends. you want an answer? that is my question. you actually want to do something about it all would you rather have, as you said, labor force that is affected only by markets? demand. people come. the wwge rates and lowered because they're is a lot of demand. so be it. john: what's wrong with that? >> well, what is wrong with it? okay. how about the millions of americans whose wage rates are depressed and/or the people who are displaced. the employer like that and a lot of consumers would like it, but the workers are oing to be negatively affected. john: what about the americans to do have just because their work for gloria who were these businesses created by emigrants.

>> let them keep working. immigrants, we are not trying to stop every immigrant from coming into the country. why not take in that we need desperately, people coming in with capital to actually do exactly what you said, invest in business. people coming in with skills3 that we need. right now we don't need a lot of people with low skills and low wage rates. they are just not necessary. john: i'm going to talk later in the show about age one be visas which is for skilled workers. you called them fraudulent. >> they are. john: h1 be visas were originally designed for the person that has unique underlying -- unique qualifications nowhere else in the world can we find that person. that it -- that is what it was designed for. john: nowhere else in the world? >> yes. i'm sorry. no one in the united states defined person with that
9:13 pm
qualification. what it has turned into unfortunately, again, a lot of the oddest that you referred to earlier have identified the problem. they're now being used to bring people in who have skills but will work for less than people who are presently employed in the united states. john: people in america are just as skilled and could take the people from india, the computer engineers are not better. >> in the of the institutions of higher education. are you really not turning out anybody that has these particular skills? it will tell you all the time that they are, but they are in direct up -- competition. john: a lot of the graauate students are from china and india. they are skilled, but they're not americans. we bring them over and give them a college education and then put them out. >> that's right.
