      The federal government is supposed to handle the migrants, not the locals, and not the state. When states and local governments have to handle migrants that is the duty of the federal government, why do the locals, and the state have to spend money for something it has no jurisdiction over? The federal government can’t fund the administration of its own laws. That is a fundamental government failure.

      • Government can’t administrate, can’t fund, or provide adequate resources for its own monopoly of legal privilege.

        I still don’t know what law you’re talking about. Most of the people crossing the border are requesting asylum and doing so in compliance with the law

          No, illegally immigrating is a seperate act from requesting asylum. They can request asylum at a port of entry. Any official border crossing will do.
