WISD0MTREE Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 When a border guarded by drones and border patrol would be just as effective, if not more so. And cheaper. You mean like the ones we already have? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caecus Posted January 31, 2017 Author Share Posted January 31, 2017 You mean like the ones we already have? And look at that, cross-border illegal immigration is at a 40-year-low! Coincidence? I THINK NOT! Quote It's a useful mental exercise. Through the years, many thinkers have been fascinated by it. But I don't enjoy playing. It was a game that was born during a brutal age when life counted for little. Everyone believed that some people were worth more than others. Kings. Pawns. I don't think that anyone is worth more than anyone else. Chess is just a game. Real people are not pieces. You can't assign more value to some of them and not others. Not to me. Not to anyone. People are not a thing that you can sacrifice. The lesson is, if anyone who looks on to the world as if it was a game of chess, deserves to lose.

Rozalia Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Why has this thread been moved? And look at that, cross-border illegal immigration is at a 40-year-low! Coincidence? I THINK NOT! Those numbers are estimations as you can't know who you don't catch. A wall is a waste of time and money. It's also bad in the eyes of our neighbors and the world. Why build a wall? When a border guarded by drones and border patrol would be just as effective, if not more so. And cheaper. A wall helps the border guard. Having a wall doesn't mean they can't have all that extra stuff especially when Trump is already tripling their number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peace and War Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Why has this thread been moved? Those numbers are estimations as you can't know who you don't catch. A wall helps the border guard. Having a wall doesn't mean they can't have all that extra stuff especially when Trump is already tripling their number. A wall, especially if it's a real wall and not a fence, will require a lot of money, time, and resources. And will continue to do so if it is to be maintained. Not to mention the US Mexico border is over a thousand miles long. That's one long ass wall. Over such a wide range of territory mobility is key, and a wall useless. I'd rather all those resources, dollars, and hours go to something more productive, say infrastructure. 1 Quote "Experience demands that man is the only animal which devours his own kind, for I can apply no milder term to the general prey of the rich on the poor."

Technically speaking, a wall is infrastructure. When Trump said he is going to put billions of taxpayer dollars into an infrastructure project, he may actually be referring to the wall.... 1 Quote It's a useful mental exercise.
