I won't fight you on that. None the less, what does this thing cost per lineal foot?

Yeah, and they pay excellent wages. They also pay for our health insurance. Our prescriptions cost $2. Brands cost us $8. So why are you surprised that unions still exist. They care about the middle class. How is your healthcare. What do you pay for it.

The waste of money is the billions of dollars that illegal aliens cost the US government.

They contribute a lot to our economy. How many americans are complaining that they can't get jobs working on farms, landscaping, house cleaning and many other jobs that seem to be beneath americans.

But they are here illegally. They shouldn't be here in the first place.

Oh, the old "they do jobs Americans won't do." So who was doing those jobs before millions of illegal aliens were here? Perhaps legal immigrants?

Exactly!

Those same old arguments get tiresome.

Its minuscule when compared to the yearly cost of not having a wall.

No, not at all, why would they.
