We keep hearing the left screaming we don't need a wall. Ok I accept that. Now please come up with a workable plan that would virtually stop illegal immigration without some type of barrier.
No politics just an honest question. Please convince me.

With the shutdown in effect, the borders remain guarded and ships, planes, and trains—as well as merchandise—will still be allowed to enter and leave the U.S. under a contingency plan set by the Department of Homeland Security. Nearly 88% of its workers will be required to report to work, but will not receive a paycheck for the duration of the funding lapse.
About 53,000 TSA employees, 54,000 Customs and Border Protection agents and officers, and 42,000 Coast Guard members and staff must work without pay, according to research from the Senate Appropriation Committee’s vice chair, Democrat Patrick Leahy. Essential employees also include anyone involved in counter-terrorism efforts, intelligence gathering, or providing telecommunications support for DHS workers.
The 88% of all DHS employees who must remain on the job are part of about 420,000 federal workers also forced to perform their duties at agencies for whom no budget or stopgap measure has been approved.
Some may receive payment if funds remain in certain accounts or their positions or work are funded by agencies unaffected by the partial shutdown. The other 12% of DHS workers, and 380,000 employees across government, will be furloughed—and also not paid for the duration.

All that post does is prove you can cut/paste. What it also proves is you can't answer a direct question.
The article mentions that they aren't getting paid. Why haven't the taxes that fund their salaries stopped being collected if that money isn't being used to pay salaries?

I have asked a simple question and all I get from you is a bunch of meaningless drivel and whining about Trump. So I will try again.
How do we control/stop illegal immigration across our Southern border without building a fence/wall???????????????
Now please try to answer the question.

The number of Mexican unauthorized immigrants declined since 2007, but the total from other nations changed little.
Mexicans made up half of all unauthorized immigrants in 2016, according to the Center’s estimate, compared with 57% in 2007.
Their numbers (and share of the total) have been declining in recent years: There were 5.4 million Mexican unauthorized immigrants living in the U.S. in 2016, down from 6.9 million in 2007.

Six states account for 58% of unauthorized immigrants: California, Texas, Florida, New York, New Jersey and Illinois. But individual states have experienced different trends.
From 2007 to 2016, the unauthorized immigrant population decreased in a dozen states: Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Florida, Illinois, Michigan, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York and Oregon. In three states, the unauthorized immigrant population rose over the same period: Louisiana, Maryland and Massachusetts.

They won't even admit it's a problem let alone offer a solution.
