Apparently illegal border crossings have slowed by more than 10% this year according to a report cited by the Wall Street Journal, today May 2, 2007.
 
But instead of rigorous enforcement as many would have us believe, this reflects supply and demand, again according to the Wall Street Journal.  The slump in the housing market is cited as the main reason as to why fewer illegals are crossing the border and it indicates, again as the Wall Street Journal  reports, that immigrants come here to work and not idle and collect welfare.  I should add they work and improve OUR standard of living while accepting jobs that go abegging.  Many on our unemployed rolls are unwilling to take these jobs or perhaps do not even have those skills necessary or simply refuse because they can and sit and complain about illegal immigration or something else.  I'd recommend that  they complain to the Wall Street Journal and tell them that the Journal is being unpatriotic and UnAmerican.
