Quote:Ok chotch. You obviously are a narco expert. Coyotes get much more than $500 to usher illegals across the border. And cartels ARE using them as mules today. Your entire argument against cartels adopting this practice on a more mainstream level can be foiled pretty easily by a blindfold. But you are convinced a multi-billion dollar wall is gonna solve the problem. You couldn't possibly conceive any of the arguments against this 'solution' could be be valid or make sense. I wish you had billions of dollars so I could fleece you into some bull manure scheme. Maybe I could sell you the Brooklyn Bridge. You're ripe and ready to be duped.

 

No, coyotes don't.  The average is $500 - $1,500 to be smuggled across the border.  The guide, or coyote, usually makes $200 - $500 depending on the job and their experience level.  The guide will normally bring 3+ with him.  The rest of the money goes back to the cartel. 

 

Cartels are using what as mules?  

 

It's really very simple man.  You don't risk tens of millions of dollars and years of preparation time building a tunnel to bring a few field workers across.  You really think that out of thousands of people that they could get across through the tunnels, that one wouldn't spill the beans?  The majority of groups that come across spill the beans on who their guides are when they are caught.

 

I don't think you even read what I type sometimes, because no matter how many times I state my stance on a topic, you insert your own narrative and claim it's my stance.  For the last time, I don't believe a wall will solve all of our immigration problems.

Kotite: "If you honestly believe the sky is green then you're dumb."

Me: "I didn't say that.  I said the sky is blue."

Kotite: "No matter how many times you say the sky is green, the fact remains that it's blue."

Me:  "I.. I just..."

Kotite: "It's BLUE!!!"
