As with most things there is an optimal level of activity. I'd stay on the low side if I were controlling the numbers. Also I'd favor certain countries over others as in the ones where people are more highly educated. Also English speakers only need apply IMHO.

A border wall is needed from the Pacific straight through to the Gulf of Mexico. It's absolutely necessary.

US company offers to build border wall for a fraction of cos

Postby surfsteve » Sun Apr 07, 2019 9:33 pm

Fisher Sand and Gravel Company says it can deliver 218 miles of wall fencing plus paved roads, lighting and security for 3.3 billion dollars. They said this works out to 12.5 million dollars a mile and sounds ridiculously cheap till I do the math and find out it comes to 2367 dollars a foot. They also say they can build it at a pace of more than one mile per day, rain, wind or shine and will have it done by 2020!

Found this older video about the company today. This would have been a good idea instead of the steel slats but I like them both!

I like him. I expected to see more people talking about him. At least on Fox but everyone seems kinda quiet about it.

Tucker: Would Venezuela uprising be good for US?
When was the last time that military intervention in a foreign country worked? Iraq? Syria? Afghanistan? Are we stupid enough to get sucked into another one of these stupid situations?

Tucker: Gillibrand thinks immigrants are better than you
Libtards like immigrants because they tend to vote for libtards. Second and third generations become more conservative. Libtards would become extinct if immigration were cut way back.

Tucker: Mexico must be penalized for illegal immigration
A tariff might be a slight inconvenience for American consumers, but it will be devastating to the dysfunctional country south of our border!
