America officially voted for a border barrier with the popular 2006 Secure Fence Act. His vocal support and push for the bill, was one of the crowning campaign positions of, then, Senator Obama. He signed it into law as President Obama, after also campaigning in they 2005 Vegas presidential debate, where Obama solidified himself as the tough-on-illegal-immigration candidate, with his very popular response of putting illegal border crossers at the "back of the line", for legal immigration.

Unfortunately, the corrupt politicians violated the will of the public and never accomplished the mandates of the Secure Fence Act. A gaggle of Demoncrats along with some sell out Reptilian Texas governor urged for not following the bill, but instead devized and alternative, without public input, not feasibility considerations, we were given in a bait-and-switch.

After the bill had passed and gotten Obama elected, the bill was not enforced. Instead, the public was given an excuse of changing it to a "virtual fence". No one considered if this was a realistic or sane idea. Instead, we gave Boeing more than $2 billion after cost overruns, to build like a one mile section of this virtual fence idea of Demoncrats. It completely failed. They blamed lacking power and network infrastructure and declared it infeasible.

We were robbed billions and did not get the bill we passed. This kind of treasonous corruption has gotten so bad, it is hard to have confidence in our government system any more. With out a severe public reaction of anger, with a means to express it and make it effective, with type of abuse of the public will continue. We need to bring back the de-incentivization for political corruption. Historically, these have been very violent, from public politician beatings, tar-and-feathering, as well as armed and bloody confrontations. Untouchable and disconnected elitists, who rule us only to further rob us, have little to worry about from the public in regards to direct reaction to their overt abuse.

Immigration is now the top issue on voters' minds. So, the issue will probably be addressed.
