Trump’s Wall Costs $21.6 Billion; Illegal Immigration Costs $148.3 Billion Per Year

1) You're dreaming. As long as their are people from the third world here - ESPECIALLY with official sanction, their families will be allowed to come here

2) Your wall will not affect approximately 77 percent of the undocumented foreigners in this country

3) WHEN the walls fail, the technology and the manpower will be used against you

4) For you to hide behind the 14th Amendment and then use disparaging words against children speaks volumes about your character much like the poster who attacks the family of a fellow poster. It's pretty much the same principle.


Your false indignation is showing. DACA/ Dreamer wet backs and their families have ZERO leg to stand in legally. That they are even here is a testament to how awesome our country is as even in Mexico, if you are illegal you have no rights. Walls have worked all over the world all through history. If you look, they have all been built in the most amazing places. And you will also find that all through history, they worked. So the wall is a small price to pay for amnesty. If you don’t live in a border state, you really don’t have an opinion that matters.

Walls only work in communist and totalitarian countries.
. Interesting view point, because nation's that have tried or built walls in the olden times found that they really weren't that effective in the end. What do you think Joshua would have thought of a wall ?? Joshua fought the battle of Jericho, and the Walls came a tumbling down. I think the only place in modern times that have seen an effectiveness of a wall has been Israel. However, without the will to enforce the border, the wall would be meaningless.


Way out of context, but you do know some Jews over there got a wall that works now right? Is it because Gawdah, is on there side? You think God likes mexicans more then Jews?
. What kind of blabbering you got going on in your post ? I just said that Israel had a wall, but the wall is useless without the enforcement aspect of it all... We don't have the enforcement attitude here, and if we can't find that attitude, then a wall will be useless unless we think that it can somehow operate on it's own like a driverless car etc. The Jews have the right attitude, and the enforcement will.

The wall doesn't require any more of an "enforcement attitude" then we have now. all it requires is for current border gaurds to man it and apprehend anyone trying to get around it. On the other hand, all the proposed bogus alternatives to wall require an administration that is actually enterested in securing the border. Hence, they are no starters.
 
One day the political pendulum will swing left. The Dems will be in power. Courts can still rule and modify any of this.

Once a person is in this country they can sponsor relatives as citizens. They can also invite family in as guests. Those guests then can become pregnant and this whole process starts over again.

The nutty wall does not resolve the fact that the illegally ratified 14th Amendment makes citizens out of the relatives of non-citizens. It does not matter that these people do not automatically become citizens.

What is factual is that the people will be here regardless of the wall, citizenship, etc. So, my point is, let them be here, but don't think you have to make presence in a country equal citizenship.

The wall keeps people out who shouldn't be here so they can't ever get amnesty and they can't ever have an anchor baby. If pregnant women can't get here, then the problem with the 14th Amendment doesn't matter that much. If we change the law regarding chain migration, then the rest of the problems you list will go away.

Bullshit. All the walls I'm aware of were highly effective. The great wall was highly effective. It kept barbarian nomads out of the country for centuries. Hadrians wall was effective. The wall around Rome was effective. The wall Rome built on the border with Eastern Europe was effective. Tell us which walls weren't effective. I'm dying to know.

The claim that walls aren't effective is open-borders douchebag propaganda.
 
Arizona is in need of heavier enforcement including an upgraded barrier/wall/fence from what I heard. My family member told me that she has a friend living in Arizona near the border, and she said her friend when moved there purchased a home in a very good neighborhood, but after the Mexicans started flooding in she had to put bars on her windows and doors, and video cams on the premises. She said they have gangs now, and she is stuck in a situation that she can't get out of due her elderly age now. Her property has devalued so badly, that she has lost just about all of her investments in the community over the years.

Now this bullcrap had a starting point, and it has had enablers, and it has a way to aquire an assessment of the damages to be evaluated by the right people, but all this is being ignored by political advocates of open borders, and people with a dam anti-American agenda.
You assume all the Mexicans flooding in are illegals. Are they? Could most be American citizens?

Chain migration. That's going to end.

I'd say God likes Mexicans better than Jews, but that's beside the point. How much "wall" do the Israelis have compared to what you're proposing?

How many Rights will the cost... the Fourth Amendment falling by the wayside along with private property Rights being axed are just for starters.
How are the 4th Amendment and property rights going to be affected by the wall?

Since you want to bring up history, America is blind to their history. It is my primary objection to the nutty wall idea.

The founders of this country believed America to be the New Jerusalem of the Bible (that city without walls.) Many a political speech has been made since 1630 and John Winthrop's City on a Hill sermon has been preached that reference that historic sermon.

Those who want to tamper with our history and our destiny are demanding something that will destroy our country. Those who want the wall only see it in terms of the dollars it takes the build the wall.... not the costs of manning and defending it. Worse, they are oblivious to the costs in terms of Liberties and Freedoms that will be forfeited.

ROFL! The wall isn't going to destroy America. In fact, the truth is precisely the opposite. the wall will prevent the USA from turning into Mexico.

The wall is a cheaper way to defend the border than simply hiring a lot of border gaurds. All you open-borders douchebags know that. The fact that the wall is cost effective is precisely why you object to it.

Who do you think you're fooling?

You can't knock the wall based on what it actually costs, so you try to change the terms of the debate to the cost of deporting illegal aliens, which is a separate issue.

I certainly can and have knocked Trump's Great Hate Wall even if Mexico would pay for the stupid thing. It's your inability to respond to the reality I've presented you about how even more insane it is to brutally deport every last Dreamer as you wish the Koch Bros and Trumpo would do.

.
“Immigrants are essential to the success of our country and addressing the plight of the dreamers is a top priority for this network," Brian Hooks, a senior official with the Koch organization, said in a statement. "We are committed to working with Congress and the White House to find a solution that does this without arbitrarily reducing the number of people who come here to contribute."

A statement from the group -- the most influential conservative organization outside the Republican Party -- was issued as hundreds of donors and potential donors gathered for a weekend summit at a desert resort near Palm Springs, California.

Koch Network Warns Trump Against ‘Arbitrary’ Immigration Cuts


What can you do now? Suggestion: be a graceful loser as reality bites you in the ass.
 
That's all been shown to be bullshit. Walls work everywhere they've been tried. That's the fact that you can't get around.

And you did say that Democrats would demolish the wall after it was built. You're a fucking traitor.

Yeah, you see, I believe in THIS should be the face of America.

So does Mexico. That’s why they are here/ I say tax 2/3ds of the money wet backs send home. That will pay for a chunk of the wall. Likely the yearly maintenance to.

I'm not completely opposed to chain migration. It should be like Affirmative Action, whereas all things being equal in a set of uniform requirements which would include education, language, employability and security concerns, people with close relatives can be given priority

Why not offer temporary work visas and tax their income directly?


Why not do both? The reason you hit the money they send back home and hit it hard is so the illegals pay their fair share and most of the money made here stays here.

. Walls have worked all over the world in order to cover up the corruption within those very nations that built those walls.

Look, all that is needed is to enforce the laws here, take away the drugs incentives from the traffickers and dealers, seriously crack down on employers through audits, stiff fines and jail time, and go after slum lords who are providing shelter to illegals that is more than likely being subsidized through government housing subsidies etc.

Dry up the incentives, and dry up the problem. It's just that simple.

The problem is that we have way too many Americans profiting from the illegals, trafficking, and every other bad that goes along with the problem.

Yes, border security is essential, and listening to the people who know best (the border patrol), is also essential on securing the border.

Can you imagine how frustrating it must be to the border patrol when they enforce the border, and then the country is undermining their efforts as soon as they attempt to do the right thing ?? It's no different than undermining the law enforcement in high crime areas, where the law enforcement ends up backing off, and then throwing their hands in the air.... It's the same undermining taking place, and usually it's the do gooder liberals that are the culprits, but then they're are others doing it for profit.
It's already against the law for employers to hire illegals, so your proposed solution obviously does't work. You see, you solution depends on Democrat bureaucrats and politicians to do their jobs, and that is never going to happen. The wall doesn't depend that.

The border patrol supports the wall. Why don't you listen to them?
It is their job. The left supports our Commerce Clause since we don't have a nanny-State clause.

The Roman Empire fell; China is communist; all the Jews know is war and fear.

We built the greatest nation in the annals of history and fought wars on every continent PLUS had war with our neighbors with open borders.

You can call me all the names you see fit, but it only hides the fact that you don't want to deal with the other side of the accounting ledger. Not only are foreigners profitable for this country, but a wall around America jeopardizes the Freedoms and Liberties our forefathers fought, bled, and died in order to establish.

How many Rights will the cost... the Fourth Amendment falling by the wayside along with private property Rights being axed are just for starters.
How are the 4th Amendment and property rights going to be affected by the wall?

They already are. There is the Constitution Free Zone.

The United States Constitutional Free-Zone

66 Percent of Americans Now Live in a Constitution-Free Zone

Let's take this a step further and talk about the future. The anti-immigrant lobby maintains that coming into the United States is a crime. It is a false claim as coming into the United States without papers is a civil misdemeanor. It is the federal equivalent of making an improper U Turn. But, let's not argue with people with low IQs. Let us say this is about crime control.

Having a wall means that they will use armed drones and ninja clad federal mercenaries to enforce the wall. If you have property along that area where the wall is, you lose your property Rights so that the wall can be protected. How far will that protection zone extend? Most likely it will extend within the Constitution Free Zone, taking away over half of ALL Americans property Rights AND subjecting them to surveillance technology that eviscerates any Right to privacy they ever had.

Well now, the anti immigrant lobby, having NO use for the Constitution, doesn't understand the way the Constitution is applied. So, they call undocumented foreigners "illegal aliens" before the people have ever been arrested (much less found guilty of a crime.) So there goes the presumption of innocence / innocent until proven guilty. But, it don't end there.

Since they are alleging crimes and crime control (as opposed to phrasing their issue as - let us say a National Security one) they forget that the 14th Amendment mandates the equal protection of the laws.

Soooo... if we can ignore the Rights of over half of the population within the Constitution Free Zone, you can write off the balance of America since the feds will use those high tech resources to spy on you under the guise of monitoring for criminals. Armed drones, federal mercenaries monitoring you 24 / 7, warrant less searches - all under the pretext of looking for criminals???? No thanks. Oh, it's worse, but I doubt that if what I said isn't enough, you will trivialize the rest too.

The case is made. America voted. Deal with that. Or don’t.
 
So why do our " patriotic" employers hire illegals? Obviously they have no sense of loyalty to the native American labor force.
One answer to that question is quite sobering.
Cheap labor is essential to keeping food prices low. We have addressed that reality by issuing seasonal work visas to migrants looking to pick fruit and work the farms.
At least there is some measure of control there...
When an illegal worker gives the employer the required I-9 documentation, how is the employer suppose to know the illegal is actually illegal?

Cheap labor is not essential to keeping food prices low, the increase cost of gasoline has a greater impact on the cost of your food then does field labor.

The H2A should be used much more.
If I remember correctly, the I-9 documentation is accompanied by real or fake documents such as birth certificates or social security cards.
