It would pay for itself 10 fold.

They are already spending billions in feminist, welfare, and useless programs, a wall need workers and men are workers, the Wall is good for men.

Exactly! All of a sudden people want to balance a checkbook when a wall is mention but can care less for the millions given to bulls~~~ feminist programs and billions to lazy sluts who just lay on their backs and spit out kids. prioritize!

Never lose sight of what brought you here.

The upkeep? Well yeah, guess we gotta paint the damn thing every few months, and . . . and . . . other stuff.

Women are better at multitasking? Fucking up several things at once is not multitasking.

Anything like a wall can deteriorate, so there is need for ongoing repairs, particularly if it is going to be subject to ongoing border crossings and it be tampered with, which it is likely to be.

It will keep going on. I tried to find some numbers, and the annual upkeep costs, as per CATO, would end up being over $1 billion a year:

Someone please show some other numbers for it.

Show some actual numbers, backed but by legitimate date, or you are just making it up. I posted thi9s before, on how what you said, isn’t true:

Billions of dollars of year to “feel good” to “make a point” that is paid for by taxpayer dollars, isn’t exactly the right way to go about doing things.

Again, show some other numbers here, somewhere.

Just load all the debris from here in the rustbelt onto freight trains and dump it along the border!

I think this is what the Russians did.

I want the pressure washing contract. Anyone want to go in with me on the bid?

Costs associated with monitoring and maintaining a border wall are micro-cosmically smaller and insignificant compared to the costs of:

01 – Public school funding for illegals children

02 – Medical care and hospital child birth for illegals

03 – Social welfare programs for illegals

04 – Jail / prison incarceration costs for illegals that commit crimes in the US

And it cost less to stop heroin at the border than deal with the effects of it on a small percentage of the US population if it makes it across the border.

If individuals are in the United States illegally, by other means than things like overextending their Visas, being shipped in via trucks, and other things, then all you say is irrelevant here. Building a wall doesn’t stop all illegal immigration, just blocks those who may cross the border on foot, or other vehicles that won’t go over it or under it. You need to calculate how many actually cross the border as such, and see if the cost is worth it. Unless the idea isn’t to build the wall, but use the wall as a bargaining chip for other things, then this needs to be factored in. And also, what needs to be factored in is what Mexico will actually pay for.

Without coming up with these numbers, things are just being made up out of nowhere, to rationalize one’s own agenda. Can you name the actual numbers a border wall will actually block? Try googling it. If it would actually pay for itself, then why make a promise that Mexico will pay for it?

You can do something like Google it:
