re: What's your rational/sane solution to end illegal immigration?

1) End birth right citizenship. (The law would require at least one parent be a US citizen)
2) Substantial fines for employers of undocumented illegals. ($10k per occurrence)
3) The Immediate and orderly deportation of all undocumented illegals.
4) Wall?
Option 1 does nothing to end illegal immigration. It would merely define more persons as non-citizens.
Options 2 and 3 are good, especially 2. Option 2 is what we should have been doing for years. Dry up the employment market.
Option 4 is unnecessary and not effective.

End the benefits for those who come into the country illegally.
Remove the benefits, and the problem will take care of itself

The Wall is almost equal parts barrier and symbol, but we still need it.
I would add that we should absolutely end any welfare, education "in language" or any other benefits for those who cannot establish either:
1. Citizenship, or
2. Legal residence
That alone would go a long, long way to curbing the massive flow.

Yes - all those need to be done.
I think the other side of the equation needs to be addressed as well. i.e. merit based immigration, more streamlined process to become a citizen, and work visas for the low end stuff that they can't find others to do,

Well, it would. A big part of the strategy is the anchor baby strategy, when then provides a bridge from illegal to legal status for the very parents who created the dangerous and illegal situation, and then chain migration for their extended families.
So, Option 1, while the potential there is for some ugly consequences, is a necessary (albeit unpleasant) step.

As stated above by other posters, step 3 probably wouldn't be necessary if all government benefits would require legitimate proof of legal residency.
I'm okay with the idea of providing one-time only amnesty of DACA recipients, but they would need documented proof that they were brought into the US prior to their 18th birthday at the time Obama signed the EO legalizing their presence in the US. Lacking such verification, they would be considered in the same light as adult offenders.
The final step for alleviating the current crisis at the border would require further cooperation with the Mexican government in following established asylum laws. Not sure how that would work out, but if we took the measures above it would be a good start.

And I don't think we need a 'more streamlined process' for naturalization - it ought to be hard to become a full-fledged participant in US governance. We have given away citizenship far too cheaply to millions already.

Work visas would be an acceptable counter to the 'crops rotting in the fields' nonsense, but they have to be strictly enforced as short-term permits, not as a foot in the door.

End birthright citizenship.
Heavy fines on employers and individuals who hire illegals.
Severe fines & jail time for employers who hire illegals using stolen identities.

Plus a big fricking wall with 4 big doors manned by armed guards.

The wall is not necessary if you fine employers and make benefits impossible to get

Wrong. We need to stop a whole lot more than people looking for a job. I am pretty coool with them. It is the people who are causing harm to this country. Drugs, terrorists etc

ground all international flights, stop international shipping via boats and trucks, build a 60 foot wall with a moat and landmines.

I can get behind this.

Nope. More big gov't. Instead, we ought to make it easier for people to get work permits to come here and work.

Nope. Last thing we need is a ghestapo style round up. Let's make it easier: you commit a crime of any kind and have no documentation? Deported.

Nope. Big gov't again.
The easiest thing to do is go back to what REALLY made America great: immigrants coming here to work and make a living. Of course, this would require ending handouts like welfare, public education, healthcare, etc, etc, etc.

Build that wall.
Shoot anyone caught crossing it.

5) Brand an IA on every Illegal Aliens forehead.
6) Catch someone with IA branded on forehead, replace brand with a 9mm bullet.
Problems solved.

Land mines, lots and lots of landmines.
