Trump's Border Wall Has Left a Complicated Legacy
Vložit

- On his first day in office, President Biden halted construction on the US-Mexico border wall- a project launched under the Trump administration, and one that remains one of the most expensive and controversial border projects in US history. Today, it remains incomplete. But for many living along the wall, the issue of how to best regulate the border is not clear cut.
Vice News traveled to the US-Mexico border to talk to people from El Paso, Texas to Naco, Arizona to find out what impact the wall and years of failed policies have had for people along the border.

The reason there’s no border between Canada and the US is because most Canadians are better off staying here than going to the US. That isn’t the case for Mexico though.
There is and Canada currently isnt letting in Americans
Cause canada is the best. Hahaha yea right.

In Canada is it's the opposite.
Instead of Mexicans, they have to deal with Americans 😂
Hundreds of Thousands of Canadians crossing into US ?
Maybe in another dimension ...
Not on earth ...
If it had happened the same Wall would have been built there .......
Niagara is not the only point of crossing. My Grandmother lives near the border to Vermont. We used to take walks on foot through the woods crossing the border to go do some light shopping.
Canadians don't want to go to the us
Canada is a successful country. Mexico is not. Successful countries don’t need a wall between them.
There's only 1 thing that's more of a waste than the border wall.....
Is a half finished wall smh
fr which is why we should just finish it at this point
Then shut up and put up. The wall was a stupid idea,a tool used to get elected. Walls can always be climbed. We need to use advanced equipment to detect and catch. Then send them right back.
@@angrybadger616 ~ walls can always be climbed?
@Lucas Lombardo to be fair, having to use a 50 foot ladder makes it way easier for border patrol to just wait for you. And 50 feet is a long drop...
@Lucas Lombardo ~ but ladders that long are illegal Lucas
it was also not the most expensive border wall the US has paid for. We put billions into border walls for jordan, egypt, and many other nations to protect their borders. So why isn't that same logic good for protecting our own borders?

I didn’t see it mentioned in this video but there’s a huge biological issue happening at the border with animal migration routes. This new build has changed everything. I grew up in Tucson and I always remember there being a wall just not to this extent. Food for thought!
Devestating for the local fauna indeed. Murica doing murica things. Classic

It's amazing how the debate has shifted from anti and pro-immigration to anti and pro illegal immigration. Just because you're pro immigration doesn't mean you should let everyone enter unregulated...
yeah kinda weird that people are ok with illegal immigration, its not like people coming in uncontrolled might also bring covid or anything
I don't think most people are pro illegal immigration, by that I mean okay with having no immigration policies. People are anti against what they view as inhumane, unsustainable, or ineffective treatment of illegal immigrants. Also the immigration policy in the U.S. is highly restrictive often hurting people who genuinely want to immigrate legal or employ legal immigrants. It's like what that last guy said, America has a huge appetite for cheap labor that many of these illegal immigrants are satisfying. They are just trying to escape poverty or in some cases violence in their home country. Can you blame them?
The law is always flexible. It's never black and white. If that was the case any time you committed a crime everyone would always get punished by the same sentence. In reality, the justice system is a complicated mesh of appeals, reduced sentences, parole etc. This is because we acknowledge that human circumstances are unique and there can always be extenuating circumstances.....
Why don't people view immigration law the same way? It's different for each person, it's never that black and white.
@@shinmyung92 honestly it just reflects how divided America is between parties, is more illegal immigrants were given the path to citizenship, then the demand for cheap labor would be satiated, and if all the illegal immigrants are stopped from coming, it'll create a hole in our economy because regular Americans simply won't do the jobs immigrants would, so in our division were really just stuck in a loop
@@shinmyung92 From what I gather, people mostly object to detaining and deporting illegal immigrants, ie enforcement. So the only other option is to passively prevent people from crossing the border illegally in the first place, but they are against that as well. I'm not saying the border wall is going to be 100% effective, but it's better than nothing.
Regrading your last paragraph, deportation is the minimum. If you're not going to deport illegal immigrants you're essentially letting everyone in.
@@shinmyung92 i do understand the part about ethics, but the problem is that the people only focuses on the ethics of the matter, and not much more.
And that in society, governance, and life itself its considered short sighted to only focus on a single issue. Especially when said issue is "ethics" which nowadays seems to follow what is trending.
But no economy is able to handle a constant in flux of "cheap labour". Not only are there national security concerns coming from rampant illegal immigration, the debt ridden country cant sustain handing welfare benefits to any random smuck who comes into country.
And all of this is to blatantly ignore the inhumane methods by which some people are being smuggled/brought in. Which ironically direct goes against the "ethics" that people are supposedly fighting for.
Hey Vice. Now its Biden’s border wall. 🫵🤡
I find it insane that people say a wall is ineffective. Unless you're a ghost then it'll definitely stop or slow down illegal crossings. Everyone who disagrees should leave their front door wide open. Tell me the results.
you know that Biden recently approves and resume the building of the wall right? I’m assuming it works lol

I live about 30min away from border here in Canada. More times than not, it's actually coming back into Canada that's been more of an issue. I've been searched more times coming back.
You sure about that?
Don't be so naive
well into the days of colonel time Canada tensions might have been high enough for the states to have had that idea considered. After failed invasion attempt in the war of 1812 to invade parts of Canada, the slow but surely mind set of "my neighbor not my foe", began its slow origins even more coming full cycle once Canada gained its full independence as its own country after ww2. The two borders cant be compared in regards to what danger one holds over the other.
We should have kept building that wall aye

When traitor trump announced that Mexico will be paying for his racist wall, his supporters believed him. This was when the world found out how detached from reality the trump cult is. I'm glad that President Biden is doing away with this useless project and diverted the money back to the US military that traitor trump stole.
Actually the goverment is a puppet for much powerfull cartels, and there is a lot of cartel that are comanded and organized by powerfull people of united states xd thats why your country never really ends the problem cause is so embeded and is so profitable that they let it happen.

Can someone explain to me why people are upset about the wall? The US had problems with illegal immigrants from Mexico, so it ultimately solves this. Are people encouraging trespassing border? You can enter the country, just do it legally.
Most liberals in America can't use their brains. They have no common sense to realize this.
You can't treat your neighbors like this. Mexicans will start to hate you, then some crazy murderous dictator will rise an anti-american revolution and one day you will wake up with Chinese and Russian nuclear missiles on your border.
Maybe we should've invested all the money and resources spent on walls and stupid wars to make 🇲🇽 a better place for living?
Well here’s the thing and it is one word: tunnels drug kingpins such as el chapo would commonly use tunnels to traffic drugs
You don’t understand that some people seeking illegal entry into the US are in desperate situations. The main issue is that many people are fleeing from violence and poverty in Mexico since that it’s one of a few catastrophic places to be in and are looking for a better life, not a way of encouraging it. Building a wall does NOT necessarily solve the issue with illegal immigrants it does the opposite for not welcoming visitors and approves discrimination. The US has legal procedures for legal immigration, and many immigrants enter the country legally.
Additionally, there are alternative routes for illegal immigration into the US, such as through air or sea routes. Instead of focusing on enforcement-centric approaches, addressing the root causes of illegal immigration such as poverty and violence in the migrants' home countries could be a more effective strategy in addressing the problem. It's also important to note that immigration to the US has both positive and negative effects on the economy, so it isn’t as simple as you mentioned.
@@epicguy7479 “people seeking illegal entry are in desperate situations” - how is this a US problem?
“Building a wall does not necessarily solve the issue” - as we can see, it greatly reduces it.
“Additionally, there are alternative routes” - so? 2 routes is better than 3 routes.
“Addressing poverty and violence in immigrants’ home countries” - again, how is this a US problem?
“Instead of enforcement-centric approaches” - so what you’re suggesting isn’t enforcement-centric? Meddling with another countries’ domestic affairs? I’m not a military expert, but defending a wall seems WAY more safe than invading and policing citizens of another country. It’s obvious that the government values US citizens’ lives more than foreigners’.
“Immigration to the US has both positive and negative sides”, yeah, LEGAL immigration. In case of illegal immigration the negative clearly outweighs the positive, otherwise the would be no need for the wall in the first place
I remember America before 9/11, everyone was so chill, laid back and happy really was the place of dreams. But after 9/11 America has never stopped being paranoid, the whole world changed after 9/11
Sad that a few people who decided to do something horrible killed thousands, and changed each and every americans life forever.
Mhm294 not just america, all of europe and the rest of the world did too. That’s what inspired War on Terror. It hasn’t stopped since, it makes you wonder if we’ll ever have peace
@@jakkuwolfinsomnia8058 Mhm
9/11 kicked a lot of dirt to the surface, but it didn't cause the problems we have now. The social and economic issues we're facing today were gestating for decades, but a lot of people just weren't aware of how bad things actually were back in the day (Post-Cold War 90's was a time of peak American self-delusion).
"I don't see a border between United states and canada?" Because we don't have a reason in immigrate
It's all traces down to racism and how canada and USA took advantage of NAFTA so they can have their cheap labor and screwing everybody in latin america. That's why they called it America's backyard.
@@yunzensal5466 no... it has nothing to do with racism and everything to do with how people of the world are immigrating. The USA has seen over 15 million people illegally immigrate from the border of mexico since 2000 and about 50,000 aprehensions per month on the south border... The US canada border has never been anywhere near the same....
Successful countries don’t need a wall between them. Mexico is not a successful country.

You can’t just think of it as keeping out people that want a better life. It’s there to attempt to stop illegal cartel activity such as smuggling of humans, drugs, and weapons. So having a simple barb wire fence wouldn’t be a great strategy for that.
Those cartels are huge multi billion dollar organisations. They employ teams of engineer and construction workers. The wall will never be more than a minor inconvenience for them.
You can't just think of who was supposed to pay for it. So failing on a campaign promise is in the past until the Orange One tries to get re-elected Chancellor
@@stevec6427 Once the wall was in place and security measures as well, illegal border crossings were down significantly. Lowest in over 30 years.
The Cartel are way fuckin smarter than you could ever imagine. A "wall" is a futile waste of money.
they already get drugs through the ports of entry so this is a futile attempt to stop it.
Most of the drugs come over at normal crossings, water and air. The wall is easy to get through/over/under.
It causes complications and expenses for those attempting, though. No physical deterrent will ever be 100% effective but that doesn't mean it doesn't significantly complicate smuggling efforts.
Consider it this way, you lock your door every night right? Well locks can be picked, windows can be broken, doors can be removed. Regardless, a deterrent like that will be sufficient for all but the most heavily motivated and for those people it will complicate the effort - even if we both know it's not a perfect answer
Thats the point of a physical deterrent.
@@nicholasbreecher9315 -- its an expensive deterrent that doesn’t work. It’s easy to climb or cut open.

It should be appreciated that at the end - whether for or against the wall - they all seemed to agree that this is a band-aid and there's a better solution for ALL of the problems if people actually did the work.
Yeah like having the us gov finally address how they destabilized latin america, one of the root causes of this issue.

I am shocked to see such racism all around!

Yes but the fence does very little or almost nothing to the border that’s the point of this video
Every island courty should have a fence in the sea surrounding the islands especially the UK then kick all foreigners out
The old man is partially right, we can have immigrants as well as good border security but we need to change immigration laws first. It always surprised me with how many people are living in limbo in the us.
That’s exactly what I’ve been telling people, if it were up to me, finish the wall but allow more opportunities legal immigration, but nobody is proposing better legal immigration policies because nobody ever talks about it.
its not that easy as you make it seem ..... every one is saying just make it easier to be a legal immigrant but usa takes in half of the worlds immigrants every single year . so you want even less restrictions to almost letting every single person in who wants to come in . by passing this law you have a billion people in poverty around the world that would only need a plane ticket and usa would be swarmed . its expensive to take in mass immigration most of the immigrants are poor and only can work minimum wage jobs . you cant live on a minimum wage job so you need benefits to survive . immigration cost america tens of billions every year

@@chrischristy7367 Chris the tax payers were paying for the wall long before Trump was in office. Anyone who thought Mexico was gonna pay for that was neive to believe it. When the government wants something the u.s people pay for it. Just like bidens infrastructure plan. We the people pay.

That wall needs to be taller, go underground further and wider. and double the patrols.

How evil do you have to be to destroy someone's source of water in the middle of a desert? How can you deprive anybody that chance at salvation and sleep at night?
well, those same people would straight shoot them if they could, there are even some far-right groups that do voluntary border patrol and arrest people at gunpoint to hand them over to border patrol. in their own view they are being patriotic, are you think is insane remember that in any war most people with guns in their hands would have chosen not to be there, but also some are convinced that the other side is a child-eating monster thanks to propaganda. and there is a lot of American propaganda about Mexican migrants
they shouldnt be crossing either
@@SunhatAshTrUsTinJeSuS that's not the point. The penalty for illegally crossing a border is not death, so they do not deserve to die. They are human and have Rights regardless of their country of origin.

There's nothing wrong with wanting border security. Some may get through it but many won't. If you lock your windows and doors at night, there shouldn't be a reason why you're against this. The more security the better.

People only look for how effect it is exactly right now. If you look at the wall being finished, the tunnels getting filled with cement, and more measures added to securing the border over time, then this is a good investment. Even so, Illegal migrant rates have gone down like 35% even.
We did this. We created the economic situation in Mexico that eradicated farmers and gave their business to Monsanto. Those Mexican farmers were 4th & 6th generation, too.

Before jumping into conclusion I think you should take a look at things first. For the past few days the price of XRP has been fluctuating which means the Market is currently unstable and you can't tell if it is going bearish or bullish. While others Still continue to trade without the fear of making loss, others are been patient. It all depends on the pattern with which you trade and also the source of your signal. I would say trading has been going smoothly for me , I started with $9,500 and I have accumulated over $89,600 within 2weeks with the trading strategies given to me by Expert Blian Reinkensmeyer His method are top notch and profitable, obviously he's the best.

@@Neojhun Exactly.
That's the idea.
Had no idea what the guy you muffled was saying, captions would have helped
The 4th Fast and Furious has shown how they crossed the borders. And they are doing the 10th now.
I want a stronger border. I want documentation of what crosses, but I also want is easier to go through the legal way. I want it easier to become a citizen. I will not bow down to the drug cartels, the slave traders, and the just evil people. I want the immigrants to be under the protection of the American people, not will of the smugglers who get profit by abusing the immigrants. I want a border where people don’t abuse immigrant benefits by being the third party to communicate. I don’t want this wall to prevent immigration, just to make it safer to cross. If we made it easier to cross legally, less would want to go illegally. I agree with that guy about how it’s become a hubris thing. We have the laws to do stuff, but just don’t enforce it.
We have a right to say no!
"this wall was more to do with being statement than anything. the technology accessed and troops withdrawn from other regions of recent. there is far more effective processes do resolve such issues. this wall just exemplifies lighting money with fire."
🤣 Um no, the wall actually stops people from crossing, obviously, Biden getting rid of remain in Mexico policy is why there is an issue, especially in how it promotes unaccompanied minors to cross. Try bringing a 30ft extendable ladder on a 3 month 1,000+ mile journey while carrying water and gear, good luck.

@@jayandrusiak Walls are obsolete just ask the Byzantines in the 1400s or the ancient Chinese. Maybe more troops? maybe sensors or drones to help patrol the border. Personally I would rather stop human traffickers or cartels than migrants just trying to find a better home. Also I would rather use that money to maybe rebuild our crumbling infrastructure like urban/suburban sewage, bridges or roads. Immigrants believe or not provide a boost to our economy. Georgia years back before Trump and this nonsense, tried to deport their illegal immigrants from the state. Majority of those people were helpers for the agricultural industry, at the time one of the top 3 industries for the state's economy. When they realized oh crap we just destroyed our production they had to try to find those deportees back spending even more state money. Walls wont do crap, especially when there are Americans that help with human and drug trafficking. There were times where border cities had warehouses with tunnels in them that lead back and forth under the border. Cubans used boats and landed in Miami. When you dont have anything to lose, they're creative and tenacious.
John Ladd is the kinda man you don’t mess with and let him enjoy his life
( about 100yrs later ,our kids are going to ask ? What's with that wall ! How are we doing to answer?)
But if I (a US citizen) went to Canada, France, Germany, Cuba, or literally any other country in the world, I would be deported immediately or thrown in prison. You can't live in other countries without a work visa, refugee status or citizenship. People vacation in the USA and other parts of the world all the time, sure. But I don't understand how you can have family in two countries without dual citizenship. And people will do anything, anything to protect non-citizens. I just don't get it.
I think the guy at 8:57 put it well. The problem is in public perception and policy enforcement. Fear mongering in politics has painted migrants to be criminals seeking to freeload off of American prosperity, when the reality is that migrants could actually fulfill American demand for cheap labor. Poor policy enforcement has forced migrants to enter the US illegally or literally die trying. And for true asylum seekers facing imminent death if they were to stay in their home countries, the current system is atrocious.
