the republicans passed a law twice in just two days to make the big wall between US and MEX but apparently they already wasted all the money there was ( YOUR MONEY , MY MONEY , EVERYONE'S MONEY ) .
where do they plan to get this money from ???
the senate's bill apparently is also costly but will be reinbulsed by the same immigrants while the republican's plan doesn't even have funds to be put into effect . the republican's plan is obviously a political joke .
again where do they plan to get this not reinbursable money from ???
America already owns way too much money to CHINA .

i will paint it plain and simple for you DAR the cost of the senate bill would be 49 billions over the next five year and about 129 over the next decade the revenue would be 44 billion per year over the next ten years .... is that simple enough for you ???

I have a feeling they think they are going to use our tax money to build it. I find that dispicable! I cant stand the thought that we have so many other problems in this country that should take priority over this stupid wall! Although there are some rich racists out there that might be willing to help sponser it.

We have been through this many times. We know how much illegals pay in taxes - they are, after all, government accounts. That is off set from the cost leaving a $10 billion annual FEDERAL net deficit, and not even counting the cost of illegals on schools and health care and local services. Last year Los Angeles County alone paid $1 billion on service for illegal aliens.
We can't afford NOT to do it.
There are way too many of them. Each one may be a loss we could overlook, individually, but the loss from the number here is way way too big.

First of all something has to be done about the burden the illegal immigrants coming into our country and draining our economy the way they are. Americans should be filling the jobs that they have right now. These people need to stay in their own country and work to solve their problems there instead of coming to ours and creating problems here! I can promise you they are not paying taxes like the rest of us. I hope that this fence they are going to put up is going to be effective. There are other solutions to the problem that are cheaper but you really don't want to hear about those!

See :
Cost 0f 1,891 Mile
Mexico / U.S. Border Fence = 14 Days of Iraq War
Posted by The Watchdog -
August 6th, 2006
VDARE
Below is a sample of homeland security items
in the FY2007 Budget,
their estimated costs,
and the time it takes the Pentagon to burn through
the same amount in Iraq.
* 1,500 new Border Patrol agents:
$459 million ($306,000 per agent)
Iraq spending equivalent: 1.9 days
* Container Security Initiative (CSI)
to pre-screen U.S.-bound cargo
at more than 40 foreign ports:
$139 million
Iraq spending equivalent: 13.9 hours.
* An additional 6,700 Detention Bed Spaces
to replace “catch and release” with a “catch and return” policy:
$410 million.
Iraq spending equivalent: 1.7 days
* An enhanced Worksite Enforcement program
to “send a strong deterrence message to employers
who knowingly hire illegal workers…”:
$41.7 million
Iraq spending equivalent: 4.2 hours
* Border technology to enhance electronic surveillance:
$100 million
Iraq spending equivalent: 10 hours
* 18 additional Fugitive Operations teams (raising the total to 70)
dedicated to catching the estimated 450,000 individuals
who have absconded following their deportation orders:
$30 million
Iraq spending equivalent: 10 hours
* Completion of the San Diego Border Infrastructure System,
including multiple fences and patrol roads:
$30 million
Iraq spending equivalent: 3 hours
And now for the grand finale.
Although this last item is the least costly,
it may yield one of the biggest benefits.
After the first 10 miles of border fence was completed,
arrests of illegal immigrants
trying to cross the San Diego border sector plummeted
from about 25,000 per year to 3,000 per year.
But of course the San Diego fence
pushed the illegal influx eastward,
into the (less hospitable) Arizona desert.
A serious commitment to border security
would require fencing off the entire southern border—
all 1,891 miles of it.
(For comparison, we have 40,000 miles of Interstate highways.)
At $1.7 million per mile
(the cost of the first 10 mile stretch in San Diego),
the entire U.S.-Mexican border could be sealed off
for $3.3 billion dollars.
Iraq spending equivalent: 13.8 days.
Cost/benefit analysis, anyone?

One of my favorite videos is of Bush on camera talking about the illegals problem and behind him are people climbing over the fence from Mexico.
