I stumbled upon this “Immigration bill gets reprieve” article earlier today. Basically, $4.4 billion would be available for “border security” if the bill is signed into law.

I don’t really care or pay much attention to the story or the bill itself, but the article just makes me wonder. What if the US. didn’t have any border at all? If foreigners could come and work in the US freely without having to be US citizens or having work permits, what would the USA be like?

Pros: We will have more choices, more resources to choose from.
The foreign workers would be the main force to drive lazy American to try harder to make themselves better.
We could finally be able to hire somebody to do things we don’t want to do easier and safer, maybe even cheaper?

Cons: Under quailfied US workers will be unemployed even more than before.
The USA will have the highest population in the world in a week, if there’s no limit at the border.
Loads of problems will come after that con#2 above, you don’t even want to take a second look at the Pros again.

Well,… having the border wide open all at once without any restriction is not a good idea. But, you know what I’m getting here.
