People entering who are requesting asylum are given due process and scheduled for an eventual hearing. Most are found not eligible for asylum, and under current laws, are expected to return to their countries of origin.

If everyone gets to stay, regardless of being found eligible for asylum or not, what is the point of having an asylum process?
