So we are going to build a big a$$ fence.... or not.
- Thread starter DRB
- Start date
Wall bill was to satisfy Xenophobic voters, money will just be used for other things. It would be cool if they used the money to build border security robots with gatling guns and a particularly bad temper when it comes to hippies.
Can they make a version of that robot that will get rid of the ones that already made it thru?
Do illegals really cost the country $1.2billion+upkeep?
I can see doing it if Mexicans were suicide bombing East LA, but that's a lot of money to spend on illegal immigration.

But they're taking our jobs!
the twist.
you could create a lot of jobs with $1.2bill.
I'm sure a lot of hardworking folks will be employed in building the fence. And if they are like most construction sites in the Southwest all the employees will be immigrants.
Like building a fence?
i was thinking something more productive and sustainable. even whaling would beat fence-building on that.
say a tax break worth 1.2bill in industries were low-income american workers usually work.
a fence is a one time deal, plus since its construction and mexicans rule construction, the added demand will likely be met by an increase in mexicans.
that is, assuming 1.2bill is substantial enough for the southern fence-construction market.
The money would be better spent on education, like teaching children spanish.
I can see it now... US government contractors using illegal Mess-can labor to build the fence.
what, you were expecting lasting reform from this congress? just like their new policy of openess w/ regards to earmarks lasts only untill.... 12/31/06.
I still like my policy better. if these mexicans are willing to pay $10k each to smugglers to get them across the border, how about we let any and everybody in that wants to come in, but we charge them $10k for the priveledge. if 700,00 people are coming in every year, that equals 7 BILLION dollars. per year. that could fund one of the greatest tax cuts in the history of the US (or 3 small wars to be named later).

Do you have any idea what the budget of the US government is per year. Or any idea how much the war in Iraq is going to cost?if 700,00 people are coming in every year, that equals 7 BILLION dollars. per year. that could fund one of the greatest tax cuts in the history of the US (or 3 small wars to be named later).
7b a year is a tiny drop in that bucket...
That model in particular only takes out Juan Connors. Badump Ching!:biggrin:
Coffee --> Keyboard
Thanks!
Thanks!
The Iraq war alone is costing you about 177M a day...that equals 7 BILLION dollars. per year. that could fund one of the greatest tax cuts in the history of the US (or 3 small wars to be named later).
Closer to 2.2b a week now if you include reconstruction costs in it.
Hippies are idiots, and any chance you get to take a shot at those dred-wearing, pathouli soaked nutsacks, you take it. They are the scourge of the earth.Dammit, where does all thishippie bashig come from?
Hmm, a lot of negative energy I sence in your answer. Given in to the fears of the dark side you have...
I get your recentment of them is strong but I don't understand why. The're not that many of them here so I can only recolect that I've spoken to one. He was by far one of the two deepest persons I've ever met.
Balls deep?
It's fashionable around here to bash hippies and christians.
Burley Shirley bashes everybody. So he's at least an equal opportunity hater in that regard. Although this week he does seem to have some sand in his vagina.
fixed
Christians only get bashed because the Big J was a hippie.
The only people that build fence in TX are from Mexico. I have known quite a lot of them and they are smart enough to be on our side of the fence when they are done building it. That would throw the government into a whirlwind.
