Solve it? No. But I'll bet the military could stop it....immediately. But that won't happen because it's a political football.
Econ 101 says supply and demand controls wages. The gumint controls the labor supply by either looking the other way or allowing more legal immigration.
I would prefer the later. I don't object to them coming to work, just coming to leach which many of the illegals end up doing. It's not always their fault in that most want to work but without papers they are excluded from many jobs. Also being illegal little things like drivers licenses, insurance and taxes are not in their domain.
