To them truth isn't truth, facts aren't facts, reality isn't reality. Gaslighting intoxication syndrome. Their pleasure is the rational majority's pain.

Well NAFTA was a very bad deal for the US so President Trump rewrote the NAFTA deal so America is richer as a result, but the money is in different pots so to speak, and he needs to move the money to his wall pot. The biggest issue with NAFTA was that quantative easing allowed American companies to borrow cheaply then relocate their production to Mexico, then import goods previously made in America without tariffs and altering the deficit in a bad way, also causing millions of hard working Americans to loose jobs. So NAFTA bad, Trumps strong approach seems good? He needs to transfer it to the stop what his millions of suporters see as illegal imigration so need a wall for greater border security. In security or criminology terms situational crime prevention methods (walls, locks, fences, tight control etc) work very well so his wall is a proven crime prevention method. http://oxfordre.com/criminology/view/10.1093/acrefore/9780190264079.001.0001/acrefore-9780190264079-e-3 It was an election promise and he seems to want to keep it?

So I think it's good to keep promises, hard to disagree with that? https://www.thebalance.com/donald-trump-nafta-4111368 Trump rewrote Nafta? Well, it wasn't much of a rewrite. Economists aren't even sure if the US will come out ahead on the deal. If it does, it won't be much. A very tiny increase in access to Canada's dairy market after all Trump's ranting and raving. A labor provision that may improve workers' pay or simply drive production elsewhere. Either way, it's not expected to amount to much. And the heart of the agreement, namely no tariffs among the 3 nations, remains intact. After all Trump's reviling of Nafta to end up like this? Sad. As for keeping an election promise, why is this one so important? By all polls, even those from Fox, Trump's immigration stance isn't popular and the wall less so. Remember his trillion dollar infrastructure program? What happened to that promise? A far more important one. It got pissed away to finance his 2 trillion dollar tax cut. Which, by the way, he didn't promise in his campaign. In fact, during that campaign, he even mused about raising taxes on the rich. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Jingthing Posted January 1, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 1, 2019 Speaking of promises, how about the promise Individual-1 made that all Americans would have health care, much better and cheaper than demon Obamacare? What's become of that promise? Anything? Hmm? The wall is and was simply a racist metaphor. Quote Trump’s wall is a monument to vanity and bigotry Republicans used to shut down the federal government with the intention (generally) of curbing public spending. President Trump’s GOP, in contrast, shuts down the federal government with the goal of constructing a continent-long wall of dubious utility that will require (by one estimate) three times the concrete poured in building the Hoover Dam. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/trumps-wall-is-a-monument-to-vanity-and-bigotry/2018/12/31/361a7478-0d43-11e9-84fc-d58c33d6c8c7_story.html 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joecoolfrog Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 13 hours ago, bkkcanuck8 said: There are border tunnels which go undetected along the US/Mexico border, there are major rivers, rough terrain, transit via water. Simply put in a world where travel is easier than in the past, where there is an economic draw to lure and an unstable and in many case unsafe country that you are coming with - you will always have a large number of people willing to make an attempt. Some interesting facts, most people that were/are illegal in the US -- entered legally and overstayed. In the most recent year, Canada is the worst offender as far as overstaying in the US (more than twice as many as Mexico). For people that cannot legally enter the United States, or are turned away from initial entry, they can always get transit into the US -- and most illegal smuggling is done through major ports.Simply put, a 'wall' is a purely political thing with little practicality. It is wall stretching along the border would cost probably on the order of 100 billion (not 5 billion). That wall would only be trying to solve a small portion of the problem -- since it is not where most of the problem is. What would be more effective, well making hiring non-legal people but that would require a more invasive immigration where the US government knows who every non-US citizen is in the US at all times (Thailand does that and they still have a major 'illegals problem'). You will have to have a national ID system where every time a person is hired or paid for any work you have to present the national ID and check to make sure they are legal. Then penalize severely anyone hiring an illegal worker. This check would have to be done each time a contractor is hired by individuals -- right up to large corporations. Take away the economic attraction and you will lessen the problem. The country has to make sacrifices in freedom to accomplish this... and once it does the economy will be hit since the dirty little secret is that a lot of some types of employment are done by foreigners... because of many reasons (can be money, can be that people feel better than that that they would rather not work at the job and be unemployed rather than take 'demeaning' work). Things have changed -- in the past people just walked across their own farm land or their neighbours and went shopping in the other country and 'snuck' back with the border patrol literally turning a blind eye or giving a warning -- but things have changed -- and not for the better (my mother use to walk into the US across the family farm into the US).A real wall is environmentally damaging and not getting to the root of the problem in a large way. More monitoring would help, but given that drugs were very illegal and typically more than 50% of Americans and Canadians had tried it when it was very illegal. When the taxes on alcohol went up in Ontario over 33% of the establishments sold smuggled alcohol. If there is an economic draw to it - there will always be someone to fill in the gap. Some of Canada's richest families got that way because of smuggling during prohibition times. So .. yes build about 120 miles of walls for 5 billion and there will be another way whether it is over, under through tunnels -- around or just fly in. It might raise the cost a little, but it can always be offset since the smugglers are always looking for desperate people to hire to help. Yes the wall is a nonsense but no point in telling Trump's base , they all have their heads in the sand. Its never actually been about a physical wall though , its just good old fashioned ' blame Johnny foreigner ' rhetoric , the same bedrock as all 'popularist' right wing movements. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 12 year old daughter writes more sound and sophisticated economic pieces than you just did. And what are these ‘other pots of money’ you speak of? And why was Donnie - you know so great and fabulous at everything - so careless at not automatic directing those ‘savings’ to pay for the wall? You know, if there is extra money now in other people’s pockets, surely he now has to tax them for it? Or do things work different in Trump eco fantasy world?

The number of illegal immigrants residing in the USA has actually declined over the last few years. And if the Trump administration really wants to solve the problem it should be supporting family planning programs in Central America instead of slashing them. Family planning has worked miracles in that regard in Mexico. There has actually been a net outflow of Mexicans in the last several years. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
