I'm all for fining the crap out of employers, I'm fine with auditing them more. I do feel a wall is a waste of time but I'm alright with the idea. From what I've read a wall will cost around 9 billion and 300-500 million a year to maintain and staff. I'll pay some extra taxes for that but I do expect something in return. What would you be willing to give in return for a wall?
If we curbed illegal immigration, wouldn't we save enough money to pay for and maintain the wall? Seems we spend billions on illegals, for services they are provided, such as hospitalization, when they come to deliver an anchor baby. What about the cost of EBT cards, WIC, EIC, free after school programs, daycare, housing subsidies, etc?
I'd be ok with paying a little more in taxes, but I think we can pay for it out of what we save.
