Immigration › Border Wall
9>9 Personal answerWe need a structured border so that those applying for asylum can be screened at border or tourists or business travelers can enter and exit securely. Ridiculous to think that either a closed border or entirely open one are the answers.

9>9 Personal answerSince the adaption of the ACA, our employer had to stop providing health insurance due to cost increase.
