Getting deported just re-starts the cycle. It may take time, but circumstances will always encourage them to try and make it back. It's raw capitalism at a basic level.
On top of that, several crucial industries will always have an interest in cheap "unskilled" labor. They aren't supposed to be employed here as is. Why would anything change that? Construction, farming, even manufacturing eat up this kind of resource. Their illegal status only gives employers leverage that they will never have over American citizens. Cheap labor, no legal rights, more profits. It's not going to stop. Ever.
The places they live are not my concern and doesn't give them a free pass to illegaly break into another foreign country.
Of course there is no way to stop illegal immigration 100%, but with strict, enforced, good policies like I mentioned it will curb illegal immigration tremendously.
