The fence envisioned by the secure fence act was barely started, and certainly not completed.
613 miles of 700 completed, which is nearly 90%. Feel free to call is "barely started". First you said it was not built at all, so I guess your view is evolving
So now that Nutty Don is asking the people of the US to pay for the Wall, 3 subcontractors have placed liens on his DC hotel. He did not pay his bills.
This folks is what will happen as the GOP and Nutty Don put a budget in place with a 1 Trillion dollar deficit.
He will use other peoples money (your money that is) to fund all sorts of BS, leading the country to financial ruin.
Look to protect those 401k's now. The GOP gave us 2008 after only 9 years, next one could come sooner.
Illegals will build the wall cheap -- and be allowed to stay here if they do.
I thought the plan all along was to have us build and initially fund any border wall or barrier and then recoup those expenditures through taxation on remittances and various border fees.

613 miles completed but its not really "completed" because if it was truly completed, it would let zero people in.... the original plan squeezed the illegals through certain corridors which is good because the entire border was leaking out... now the "new" border wall is going to close those corridors which haven't even started yet...
As an independent, this irritates me most about the GOP. They keep harping about the Dems spending, and EVERY TIME they are in power they spend the same, or more. At least Dems admit they plan to spend, but GOP always does it against their own principles. Hats off the Rand Paul. I always supported his father for making these kinds of speeches.
You all need to get a clue on the modern world of e-commerce and banking. If such an idiotic thing were ever done, all they would have to do is transfer via a third country.
When it crosses into Mexico from anywhere, it gets taxed. That shouldn't be a problem.

E-verify is OK, but in AZ they get around it in construction at least by using subs who don't bother.
They don't bother because it's not mandatory.
When it is mandatory, they will bother.
Quote:
There are not enough construction workers here even with the illegals.
Of course there aren't. Americans don't want to get paid what illegals get paid.
Quote:
No one but the bigots really wants to send the working ones back.
No one but people disloyal to this country, its citizens and its laws wants illegals to stay here lowering wages for Americans, taking their jobs, and burdening our schools, prisons and hospitals.
During a town-hall meeting in New Hampshire on Wednesday, Donald Trump said if elected president he would build a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border so tall that no one could scale it—or would regret it if they did. “Once they get up there,” he said, “there will be no way to get down. Well, maybe a rope, but...”

Kind of like tolls. Which never end and create a large bureaucracy which needs to be funded. Which creates larger Government, sounds like cut off your nose to spite your face.
