The economic development of Central America is not the responsibility of the United States taxpayer.

Directly, no, not at all.

But national security is clearly a primary responsibility. And when Latin America is in as deep doo-doo as it is, and when China is already swooping in to take advantage, then we have a clear national security interest in doing so.
This. What people don't realize is China is doing to the U.S. what the Brits did to them during the Opium Wars. Fentanyl doesn't come from Mexico. The Chinese take it there to bring it into the U.S. That alone is reason enough to spend Billions to keep it out.

Lets just roll down there and take over and boom... make them all Americans so they don't need to go anywhere. We instantly get back all those manufacturing jobs we lost to Mexico. Mexicans get to become American citizens. We can deal with the Crime/Cartel issue. If we're going to spend Trillions of dollars on other countries, lets do it to one that we can reap the benefits from. And as for boarder security, we now have a much smaller border with Guatemala and Belize to worry about.

I actually proposed something like back when I was in University in one of my classes, and my prof laughed and said 'yea thats an idea that comes up from time to time. It's both a great solution and a horrible solution at the same time.'

I'd have voted yea long ago...that time has long passed...

Unless you're going to put drones up in the air that can all be actively monitored 24/7, along with Border Patrol facilities every 5 miles or so, I would say the wall is the way to go.

I'd say we just throw some armed Predator drones up there, and order them to stop. If they don't stop, you shoot to kill.

That's fairly similar to the "wall" that is in place in some areas currently, and why more and better structure is needed. In some areas it has a 2 or 3 rail fence that people can literally lean over and step between the rails, or stand there and throw a leg over the top of it to climb over. While these sections can stop a vehicle, they have no impact on slowing pedestrian traffic.

By the way ... Trump is building the wall for all of us CB, not just some of us.

Not at all.

Just wondering why the left was SO supportive of those phantom jobs back in '09 but are now dead set against REAL shovel ready jobs now?

And these jobs are a hell of a lot cheaper too!

Bump.

81% voting in favor of building a wall after 3 days of voting, down 3% from yesterday.

If you have not already voted then please vote. This is your chance to show what people really think instead of having some fake polling data pushed upon us by the media. Voting is open for 11 more days.

Because the promise of a wall that Mexico was supposed to pay for was a lie. Not wanting to pay for a restaurant that you were invited on a date to doesn’t mean that you aren’t hungry.

Strange, we haven't built nor paid for an inch of wall yet so thus far it's not a lie.

A lie is saying the ACA was going to lower healthcare costs.

A lie is saying that if you like your insurance plan you can keep your insurance plan.

A lie is saying if you like your doctor you can keep your doctor.

A lie is saying 16 separate, unsolicited times that there would be no boots on the ground in Syria.

A lie is saying ISIS was the JV team.

A lie is saying Operation Fast and Furious began under the Bush administration.

A lie is claiming that your campaign was primarily funded by small donors when the figures say different.
