Immigration reform and border security, RIP

Apparently, the Obama administration's plan for immigration reform does not include improved border security.   So, let's see; we provide a path for lawful immigration to those who break our laws.  What incentive is being created here?

My take here is that even if the relatively saner Rubio plan, which does include border security, is adopted, there will be no improvement in border security because the executive will simply ignore, as much as possible, the need for improved border security.  So with one fell swoop, both border security and immigration reform will die a slow, ignominious death.

And as a result, thousands more Mexicans caught in the crossfire of the drug trade will needlessly die.  Keep in mind here that meaningful border security doesn't just reduce illegal immigration; it also makes it more difficult to carry on the drug trade.
