The government has the ability to fix a lot of things, but they don't because it's politically advantageous not to.

Thanks for the out of context word salad.

Proud you're actually attempting to have a conversation.

There is no substantial difference between presidencies regarding immigration policies. Failing to 'fix' this issue provides advantages.

Capitalism requires an exploitable underclass and conservative policy sees to it that this class continues to exist. Conservatives are not going to fix the issue of illegal immigration, no matter how much they whine about it.

Did my comment even hint at which political party I was referring to?

No, it didn't.

The GOP will never fix immigration because their buddies rely on the cheap labor.

The Democrats won't either because they need the votes.

Almost anything you want solved, politicians will actively try to keep the issue alive because it motivates you to vote.

A Non-Profit business should attempt to work itself out of business, because that would mean they achieved their goal and solved their issue.

But that would mean the paychecks stop rolling in.

So there's an incentive to keep the issue alive.

Same with politicians.

You blame Capitalism, but it could be Power, etc.

You're awfully defensive. I see capitalism and power as essentially seeking the same thing, though obviously power can exist on its own without the acquisition of wealth too

I'm sure you do, which helps my overall theory that the left and right both ultimately have an issue with corruption, we just call it by different names.

When the left says 'Capitalism bad', they're referring to the worst aspects of it...the corruption.

When the right says 'Government bad', they're referring to the worst aspects of it...the corruption.
