Re: Reader: 'The idea of a 'wall' is completel....

Reader [seems] to be totally out of touch with reality.

Walls do things that reduce the need for human operations. That is a good thing. Let's look at an example. Would we want to be carried in a palanquin 200 miles by slaves, over a period of weeks, or would you rather travel the distance by car in a few hours, without the need for slaves to carry you?

The choice is obvious. A wall is a machine that stands as an impediment to travel. And it works.

If it wasn't effective and much cheaper than human intervention, Paul Ryan would not have built one around his house in Washington, DC. Ex-president of the United States, Barack Hussein Obama, would not have built a 10-foot high wall around his recently purchased house, just down the street from the White House. And the Pope would have spent a lot more time with the average Italian citizen, because 30-foot high, 20-foot thick walls around the Vatican would not exist.

The large scale estimates for the southern border, make a mockery of the contract process, and are much ballyhooed by liberal media. But we all know, these are much inflated. Even if they aren't, the savings that occur because illegal aliens are 6 times more expensive to taxpayers, than legal aliens, would easily displace any construction costs.

And then there's the crime element. 2 weeks ago, 30 illegal aliens were caught climbing out of a cave-tunnel near the San Diego border with Mexico. 23 of them were Chinese!

The US Border Patrol reports 40% of all illegal entries are people that aren't even from the American Continent. That includes the whole mass from Alaska to Tierra del Fuego in Argentina.

We cannot afford NOT to build a wall. Any other action, is no action at all, leaving the public trust in tatters, and our way of life abandoned and left for dead.

The people of this country must have consideration in deference to people who merely occupy space inside our border, displace workers, create an artificially distorted economics base for corporations, encourage theft of and manipulation of our social services, stretch our medical services beyond survival limits, and create a reduction of the quality of life for everyone.

Even our politicians will complain, when the next 12- million foreigners walk into this country without consequences for themselves, and then we find less bribery money available because there is insufficient tax payers to make it profitable to steal from inside government.

All of these, and many other consequences are on the plate, when a country that never had open borders in its history decides not to enforce its immigration laws, translating us into an open border state.

One world for all, no wealth at all, massive death and disease, suffering. Truly the equality of the masses.

Then we get the silence of the grave.
