Summary

The debate over border security has centered on whether a physical wall is the best way to stop illegal immigration and contraband smuggling into the U.S. In this episode, we tackle that question. We look at the push-pull factors behind illegal immigration, the economics and tactics of the cartels, and what policies the American Government can pursue in order to address them.
