Umm, OK - How does this work?

Got similar Malls on the Northern border as well. Cross Border shopping is a big industry.

And a reason that the Big-Time Border Clamp Down is doomed to failure, it's Big Business at it's best.

Too mush cash at stake to 'Build a Wall'.

What kind of assholes want to stop legal immigration and temporary visits? ILLEGAL immigration is the problem, right?

A wall wouldn't affect this though. All these people cross the border legally. The employees in the Mall though.....

Well obviously not, that's why we need effective border controls. But just keeping all the Mexicans out of the country seems like a little overkill to me, and totally unnecessary to solve the problem. And totally cutting off ALL immigration or visits from Mexico seems a lot like cutting off your nose to spite your face.
