immigrants we need and will allow. That has to be a big number too. If they played ball, we would have to have a reasonable process of handling all legal immigrants which would include a fair share of asylum seekers. Why wouldn't we let a good number of our immigrants be those people? Immigrants starting out with a clear picture of who gets in, how and why can't hurt. It may prevent some from starting out.

If everything smooths out on the legal immigration side, we then get a clearer picture of what's going on illegally. They really don't want that because it's nowhere near as bad as they make it out to be. All of their shit keeps us from fixing what problems there really are.
