| + | 50 migrants were found dead from heat exposure after they were left trapped in an abandoned truck in San Antonio, Texas, this week. On 6/27/2022 Texas Gov Greg Abbott tweeted, “These deaths are on Biden. They are a result of his deadly open border policies. They show the deadly consequences of his refusal to enforce the law.” | ||
As University of Texas Rio Grande Valley political science professor Terence Garrett told PolitiFact while responding to Abbott’s previous lies about Biden’s immigration policies, “There's no such thing as an open border.” According to Garrett, current border security measures include nearly 20,000 Border Patrol agents, aerial surveillance systems, and hundreds of miles of fencing. “We don’t have an open border,” Garrett said. “That’s absurd.” | As University of Texas Rio Grande Valley political science professor Terence Garrett told PolitiFact while responding to Abbott’s previous lies about Biden’s immigration policies, “There's no such thing as an open border.” According to Garrett, current border security measures include nearly 20,000 Border Patrol agents, aerial surveillance systems, and hundreds of miles of fencing. “We don’t have an open border,” Garrett said. “That’s absurd.” | ||

So, in my humble opinion, one hundred years afterward the US is reaping what it sowed when it exploited these Central and South American countries. It is a very difficult and complex task to address the economic, social and political problems now festering in these countries today, if the US was seriously inclined to do so. But, in the end, that is really the only way to stem the flow of immigration from those regions to the US southern border. | So, in my humble opinion, one hundred years afterward the US is reaping what it sowed when it exploited these Central and South American countries.
