Border Wall Thread (Merged)

[Pacer92]

Homeland Security estimates US/Mexico border wall will cost $21.6B & take more than 3.5 years to build

That's a drop in the bucket compared to what we spend on defense each year...600 billion...US tax payer dollars to outfit countries against the boogeyman...

This should be defense priority #1....

Government employees are estimating. Double the cost and the time.

Unless mexico pays for it in full, it won't be under budget.

Ok. Those jobs that last 3 years definitely fix the problem. We need more sustainable, long term jobs.

Any infrastructure project is temporary. Whether it's a border wall, a pipeline or an interstate bridge. For the last 8 years Obama and the democrats have acted like infrastructure jobs are the long-term solution to the country's joblessness problem.

Will use subs.... they need a finished product.

Mexico will pay for it. Indirectly mind you, but they will pay for it.

They can build a second wall and make the inbetween a mine field.

Because it's a crock of **** to anyone with a tablespoon of street smarts.

Surprised you're bamboozled so easily.

Well there you go... in bed w the cartels. Go figure.

Why is it these foreign bastards and domestic liberal idiots believe they have a constitutional right to come into the country illegally? It's absolute lunacy.

Best I can tell it is done to just piss off the Americans who want immigration done the right way. It's similar to a kids temper tantrum, kid can never justify its temper tantrum.

Except in this case it's the court(s) and not a kid. And instead of not being able to justify it, they are... with law.

So you are all for letting anyone into this country unchecked, unvetted, and without any semblance of how we will undertake the massive amounts of support needed to help them.

Slow your roll, literally NO ONE has suggested anything of the sort... I simply pointed out the how silly your comparison is.

Trump and his supporters seem to be increasingly irritated that they live in a republic. Sorry guys, this isn't Burger King, you can't get it your way.

Well the US pays out around $25B a year to illegal Immigrants.

You have 2 groups on the far left, these thugs out rioting and protesting are basically for anarchy. The thugs in robes don't care because they live in private gated neighborhoods and are isolated from the real world so they are very unlikely to be affected from their terrible rulings.

Another campaign promise in-process. They were after criminals but the press will slant it as a crack-down on all immigrants to instigate a riot. Just another example of liberal bias in the media.

Double it, then double it again, then maybe again. That's how good their estimates usually are.

 

[n_huffhines]

Ok. Look at all those jobs he's created.

Public sector work is not job creation.

I see you spent a whole 30 seconds on your cost analysis but where is your benefit analysis?

He also beat Kim jong-un in golf by hitting 18 hole-in-ones

Mexico will pay for it. Indirectly mind you, but they will pay for it.


(Why is this so hard to understand)

It's not that it's hard to understand, it's that it's false. Importers directly and indirectly pay the tariff tax. Exporters indirectly carry burden of tariff tax.
