How Many People Crossed Illegally into the U.S. This Year? | Man on the Street

what's up guys Aldo here with Prager yel last year millions of illegal immigrants poured over our Southern border so today I came to California State University to see what students think about that and to ask them if they think we should have open borders let's go see what they say do you guys lock your doors at night uh yeah I do yes we do why um it's just the area that we live in um is just more subject to higher crime rates so you never know what's going to happen so it's better be safe and sorry do you think it's fair for the US to want to do the same to lock their doors from people that they don't know who's coming through until they're properly vetted I wouldn't say that's the right thing to do H that's a good question next one what do you think I mean these are the hard questions what do you think I think there's a lot of good people that need a place to go and I think that just ignoring them completely is not right and we have so many resources here in America honestly I'm not too sure how to answer that question that's that's something I do have to think about should America have open borders I I don't see why I would say no I say yes I think they should to be honest it's my my parents are immigrants I would like to have open borders because I believe everybody deserves the American dream this country was built off certain immigration they're not here for like bad purposes a lot of the people just are looking for Better Lives I think the closed borders is a problem because it's splitting up a lot of families when you send people back and you don't send them all what are some of the negative consequences of having an open border well anybody can come through and that means if um too many people come through then you know the economy ends up getting affected the workforce gets affected right now there's about $116 billion discrepancy between the amount of money that illegal immigrants take out of the system versus money that they put back in do the American taxpayers have an obligation to pay for illegal immigrants that come here yeah why systematic oppression is still a thing in its own its own right and it's it's simply not fair we are just a lot more privileged we have the resources to be able to do that and they don't and the reality is no it's not an obligation I don't think we're obligated to help him but I think as a moral standard it would be nice if we could do you know how many people cross the southern border this year I don't take a guess probably like 10,000 higher oh 50 higher that's too much 60,000 100 thousands 3 million oh 3 million people came back that's a lot that's hard of it and this is the highest number of illegal immigrant Encounters in the history of the United States having an open B with that many people coming over you're bound to get bad people in the mix does that worry you a little I think there should be it's really hard but there should be a way to relegate it so I think the system of for that is called Legal immigration does thinking about that make you reconsider whether or not we should be an open border or not I feel like it does because obviously crime rate is high because of that yeah I kind of forgot about smuggling drugs like that did not come across my mind I've been hearing about Fetti now more than ever like it's kind of scary scary like that's like deadly stuff right there there's this one girl who overdosed on fenol she passed away and she was a sophomore so it's pretty pretty tragic yeah I think we should take more precautions especially if lives are at stake and I actually went to the southern border a couple months ago and I did some ride alongs with sheriffs and what I saw firsthand is that the open border and when you're not sending people back it's creating a whole economy for these cartels to traffic drugs to traffic humans you know sex traff trafficking human smuggling so when you have open borders you keep yourself open to the bad stuff as well did I make you think any differently on on the immigration or the Border crisis I feel like you did open my mind a little bit well you guys that's a wrap for this episode at se Sun let me know what you guys think down in the comments below if yall enjoyed this video make sure to give it a thumbs up and share it with your friends make sure to follow me and prageru on all social medias and I'll see you guys in the next video I tried I tried he'll find lunch somewhere else hey guys thanks for watching this video prageru is a 501c3 organization help us keep our videos free by making a tax deductible donation today I appreciate your support
