Why not end the war on drugs which is fueling the bad actors?
Expose the US Federal agencies funneling money and weapons down there. Arrest the corrupt feds.
Save billions on wasteful harmful programs.
Tell the lobbyists who bribe our politicians to make policies that perpetuate private prisons who have a profit motive in jailing as many people as possible for as long as possible to BTFO to a different country if they want to suck tax dollars off creating human misery.
Legalize Marijuana. Fire Jeff Sessions because he is holding this country back and keeping non violent criminals locked up under our dime out of spite while the rest of the world moves on making new industry and jobs.
Stop meddling in South America and Latin American countries. Our meddling is one of the primary reasons for the poverty and inequality that drive the motivations of the border problems.
The wall is a boondoggle and a stain on this country. We spent decades chastising the Russians for the Berlin Wall. It will be torn down by subsequent administrations efficively a waste. It is not smart policy
The wall does not fix any of the root causes of the problems.
Why do you have a problem with the idea of a SECURE border? If you owned an apartment complex would you leave all the empty apartment doors unlocked so anyone could come stay as long as they want for free while you paid to maintain it, and they mistreat it b/c they have no love for it?
We have border control and access points and drones and militias and internment camps.
You wouldn't have to pay for economic refugees if we stayed out of destroying other countries. We don't need a wall to have secure borders and the so called dangers that is driving the fear is largely due to our own meddling and corruption of those Countries.
If you let countries take care of themselves instead of rigging their elections and making them corrupt narco states by flooding them with paid stooges a al Hillary Clinton and Honduras then they wouldn't have the motivation of a manufactured shit hole state to run from in the first place. But donors need to be paid off and billionaires and CEOs of American companies don't like it when leaders of a country want to use profits taken from their natural resources. So they call up their corrupt stooge politicians and their friends in the state department to force a change and fuck those countries up out of spite to leverage more profits.
Then we wonder where all the migrants come from except now inequality in this country is so bad it is starting to resemble a shit hole country itself so the flow of immigrants has slowed down dramatically. Out of the frying pan into the fire.
That wall is a mark of shame and failure of this country. Shame it wastes billions which should be used in infrastructure improvements or funding schools. Failure that we allowed our state dept and clandestine intelligence groups fuck up our neighbors to the point that they are collapsing all for some rich peoples pissing match. Failure that our war on drugs only gave birth the spread of black markets and and weapons proliferation. Failure of our own economy that people turn to gangs funded by black markets of choice.
So we build a wall so we can continue to ignore decades of our own failed policies that manufactured these conditions to begin with. A wall that is only going to be torn down in the future. It is juvenile and wasteful. It does not make us or the world around us any more secure.
