Haven’t we “walled” off the White House with fences and barricades?
Do walls keep undesirables out or not? If not, why do people keep building them? If they do, why not build one to keep people from entering the country illegally? No, a wall won’t stop them all. But it will certainly have an impact, and everyone knows that.
Because building walls is like bread and circuses. It makes the populace feel like government is doing something for their money.
In fairness, that is what a lot of government is. The ACA is an example of this as well. Feel good gestures based on lies.
Please answer the question: Do walls keep undesirable people out or not?
Point taken. The ACA has now been redefined as Medicaid expansion.
The ACA was a huge tax on the healthy and wealthy.
It was also an added tax if you deducted medical expenses. (They lifted the floor from 7.5 to 10%)
Why import problems?
Yes, and as the ole’ saying goes “eventually you run out of OTHER persons money.”
Only when you run out of ink which helps print the money.
Actually the border patrol has stopped a number of illegals under both Obama and Trump. I hate to see an expensive wall being built just to fulfill a promise.
Common sense tells us that walls would not stop all nor they fool-proof. They are last resort because for so long our government did not care about implementing our immigration law until we have excess of fifteen million or so illegals which the previous government loved so much.
It’s so sad, we could have expanded Medicaid without all the regulation and disruption that came with ACA.
In 2009 we could have extended Medicare to 55 or even 50 just as easily it seems. After all Medicare is a known quantity and people don’t freak out against it.
