I have the feeling that the reason the left is so against the "wall" is because it WILL work.

it's not just "the left" moderates centrists and plenty of conservatives are well aware of how big of a waste of money a Trump type wall is

some don't really care either way if it happens or not but we all know it's a waste of time and money

it's just the Trump train of anti-lefters full of boomers and 20 somethings with the mentality of boomers that buy into it

do you have data to support your opinion that walls don't work?

the idea of a 20 foot wall covering every square inch of the border is definitely hyperbole

LOL. We "buy into it", because it not only would work here, but has worked in other countries too numerous to mention.



/e On top of all that... when compared to the sheer amount of people and man-hours that would be needed to do a similar job, the wall is a "cheap" solution.

Illegal immigrats cost us upwards of 20 billion. It pays for itself within the first year.

lmao

he is right pretty much most estimate wall will be around 20 billion, and several hundred million a year to maintain. apparently illegal immigration does run in the billions per year so the numbers are sound and profitable. the only question is how effective will this wall really be?

It will be a hell of a lot more effective than no wall, and a pile of liberals, standing around saying: Pssst, this way there's no guards at the moment.

20 billion is on the low end

it would cost significantly more for anything even close to what Trump has been selling for years

there really isn't a question of how effective it will be. Over under and right on through they get in

I want to see a wall crushing killdozer more than anything loaded with mad max looking blokes waving American flags.
