The Biden administration assured us that addressing the “root causes” of illegal immigration would solve the problem (not a crisis!) at the border.
The thinking was that as people had more opportunities in their own countries, fewer would want to leave.
Oops.
It should be clear by now that the focus on root causes was just a PR stunt, to make it appear as though the administration were responding constructively to the border crisis without actually, you know, enforcing the law. . . .
