The Great Speed Bump of Mexico



No matter how rigorously rational the reasons, how artfully articulated the arguments, how many millions of taxbucks the governcrats will burn through to build the Great Speed Bump of Mexico, it will never produce the results its cheerleaders insist on pretending it will. Walling off the US-Mexico border is ballyhooed as a magic bullet. It will stop illegal immigrants, stop drug-running Third World narco-gangsters, stop those fiendishly clever Middle Eastern Al-Qaida interlopers from donning Juan and Julio costumes and smuggling radioactive dirty bombs into the Arizona desert. Whether the wall should be built at all generates hot dispute, even amongst those liberty-loving libertarians.
