regard to the issue of border fencing, i think there is a lot of sort of a smoke screen with the issue of border fencing. i think that you can make a very good argument that the border patrol resources that are currently available for trying to control the borders would be adequate for handling illegal entry into the country if illegal entry were cut down by a very large magnitude as a result of the knowledge of people that they cannot get jobs if they came into the united states. in other words, remove the job magnet, fewer people will come. to itpeople come up increases the leverage of the border patrol to control the border. --annot -- you experience experience would have to show whether or not that would dramatically increase the number of people illegally coming into the country. that that probably is true is the reduction in illegal immigration that happened at the whenf the last decade there was very high unemployment and a very major reduction in jobs available in the services and construction industry. jobs were down, fewer people came. a reduction in apprehension of illegal immigrants which indicated a reduction in attempted illegal entry into the country. --i th
