So... how do you reduce something like people crossing a border beyond one hundred percent ?
People trying to get out of the country, I guess
They're crossing on the opposite direction now
And bringing additional people with them!
Deportations
Hint: math
For some reason, people will sometimes flip the fraction when calculating decreasing percentages, so this roughly means that the old number of crossings is beyond one hundred percent greater than the current number of border crossings. It's really dumb
