View Full Version : Bald Eagle Wall to cost $8 Billion

The wall that Donald Trump is proposing is expected to cost $8 billion, according to Trump.

That is ridiculously cheap.

We can easily afford to build it ourselves but Mexico will pay for this through trade.

Building the wall will create jobs for thousands of Americans. It's just like when FDR had people build trails during the great depression and created thousands of jobs.


What I don't understand is, why don't the Mexicans simply dig a tunnel under the border that gets them in to America? If Hamas can do it in Gaza, Mexicans can do it in Mexico.

Why are people so against the wall? Do they want everyone in Mexico to have easy access to illegally sneak in to America? Why do people want open and unregulated borders?

A lowball estimate? From a game show host turned presidential candidate?

You don't say!

The Bush administration calculated the cost of removing Saddam at $50-60 billion. How'd those estimates work out?

They already do. They get people and drugs into the country via underground tunnels. A border wall would be a big expensive nothing. If you want to create jobs that will have a useful result for the country, focus on repairing our crumbling infrastructure (roads, bridges, etc) and carrying out Barry O's vision for a cross country high speed rail.

If it's made of stone like the Great Wall of China it will be badass. It would be cool if the design of the wall subtly changed to reflect the state it was protecting too.

China is allowed to have a great wall, so why can't America?

Millions of Americans are jobless. Let's put them to work and send them to the wall!:rockon:

For $8 billion, you could build Trump Tower 24.7 times. That's an 88 floor luxury skyscraper. This is just a fcuking wall we're talking about. $8 billion is plenty.

Trump first proposed a 1900 mile wall and engineer estimated an effective 1900 mile wall would cost about 17 billion. (http://www.nationalmemo.com/an-engineer-explains-why-trumps-wall-is-so-implausible/)

Now Trump only wants to build 1000 mile wall which seems like a flip flop.

The guy who did the estimate probably doesn't actually pay attention to Donald Trump speeches. He's been saying the entire time that you only need 1,000 miles of wall on the border because the rest has natural barriers.

dont get me wrong. i support the social democrat party here in germany, but this refugee thing is just out of control, so i will probably vote for the first time the right-wing party called AFD.

we have to rescue refugees...but rescuing doesnt mean to build 500,000 apartments for them, to give them free social-welfare and free health-insurance (dentist of course inslusive) and to open the job market for them. to pay integration-calsses for them, to accept their ridiculous degrees etc. thats just not fair.
the 1.2 million "refugees" who are already in Germany will cost the government ca. 25 billion a year. And this only, if the number of refugees doesnt grow! but in january already 100.000 new refugees arrived in germany!

Printing money doesn't give the country more wealth. It just changes the value of the currency.

Let's say you own a building worth $20 million. Let's say there is 5 trillion USD in circulation. If they print up another 5 trillion, the amount of currency in circulation has now doubled. Your $20 million building is now worth $40 million. Nothing has changed. All you achieve by doubling the amount of currency in circulation is making each dollar worth half of what it was.

$17 million. 1100 mile range. The southern border is 2000 miles. That means, you can get 100 of these, fly them back and forth across the border, and have every single mile with aerial coverage 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. See a group of illegals, follow them, and then send in a few trucks to round them all up.

Or you can just make hiring illegals in this country a $5,000 fine. Once the jobs dry up, they'll go home. Or rather, that's what WOULD happen, but democrats will throw more money at them to get them to stay (and remember who helped them out when they can finally vote).

Lets face it....Trump is really our guy.

I don't know where you are from so you probably wouldn't understand the symbolism of this proposed wall.

Without a wall or border, we would have no country. How can we call America a country when we let foreigners come and go as they please? This is total disregard for the laws of the land.

The corporation that is the United States of America, was founded and built on laws. Indigenous people have nothing to do with how this land is today.

This great entity that is called the United States of America was not built by Mexicans. How do I know? Look at modern day Mexico and how it resembles 3rd world country. Or the Native Indians, look at what they are doing...building casinos rather than preserve their race, by building communities and housing for their own. They could have easily expanded their population.

For clarification and future references....when I say Americans and 'our country' .... I am referring to all Americans of different race, sexuality and ethnicity. We are a country. Illegal foreigners are not.

Very true. But the law of unintended consequences applies as much to domestic policies and projects as it does to foreign adventures. The present corporate oligarchy could very easily be argued to be an unintended consequence of close to a hundred years of progressivism, followed by New-Deal liberalism, along with the enervation of rigorous academic standards by the egalitarianism these things engendered. Look at the Declaration of Independence: this was a simple declaration of purpose, a rhetorical pamphlet, and it is now talked of and used as some kind of legal outline of what America was supposed to be. The abstractions of this foolish document, and the fanaticism it imbued into American politics, was an unintended consequence that the half-baked aristocrat/democrat Jefferson never properly recognised (well, until he was an old and bitter man, bemoaning the consequences of the very things he put into motion).

And there's no need to limit it simply to Iraq: IS would not be as it is if we'd not toppled Gaddafi and shipped his arms through Turkey to these same fanatics. The middle east disaster is very much a bipartisan one.
