Perhaps you can argue that in 20 years the children of illegals are citizens and can vote, but that would go away if we had had Ron Paul's bill to stop birthright citizenship to illegal aliens not under the jurisdiction of the United States.
I also agree with Paul that the only way to stop this is to end the welfare state. We already refuse welfare to illegals, but again they may have children who are not illegal, so as long as we are incentivising this it will continue.
No amount of control will be effective so long as the incentive remains in place, as we have seen with the War on Drugs. You can't fight these basic market principles. A great deal of this goes away with just a little border security and a lot of ending birthright citizenship for illegals. That should dramatically reduce the increase and incentive some who are already here to leave.
