Walls Don't Work

Countries building walls are an interesting phenomenon. During its lifespan 5000 people attempted to cross the Berlin wall. A couple of hundred died a couple of hundred were arrested apparently the rest were successful. Granted it probably stopped a few hundred thousand from even trying. The Great Wall of China did not stop invasions from enemy countries. The invaders bribed the gate keepers.  What makes us think a wall around the United States will be any more successful? Who do you think will be the gate keepers?
