I'm good at making mistakes. Sometimes I improve, but I never make the same mistake twice.

Kinda agree about visa, but passport is necessary. It is essential for safety of the society to know the id of the people who pass through borders.

its trivial to illegally traverse a border

Just a degen meme whisperer looking to buy mom a house via elevated taste in shitcoins.

But what about them makes them a scam?

99.999% of people lack the capital or social prowess to bribe an official. And for the majority who traverse illegally, such regulations typically gatekeep them from the benefits that those who traverse legally get to enjoy.

what do you mean?

you can either:
- bribe officials
- traverse illegally through the border at an area with low security.

2. is especially effective because its impossible to keep borders locked down unless you sink huge amounts of resources, which is not whats happening almost anywhere
