In that way, I can actually support the idea of a wall as a catalyst for starting the conversation for immigration reform. I believe if the wall makes illegal immigration worse, we'll be forced to have the discussion. You know your immigration policy is fluffed when a 'uge wall can actually stand to make the problem worse.

The physical barrier without true reform will exacerbate the problem much in the same way that amnesty without a physical barrier does. Starting with reforming the pathway to citizenship or amnesty is probably the only way to not make it worse while only doing one part.
