GoFundMe? Well, if the wall is $16 Billion, and we each donate $100, then just over half the US population needs to donate, about 160 million. Bet it could be done, especially if some people donate more. Figure out what $100 gets you—your name a yard of wall?

Good morning, Below is my last post (which I presume you didn't read, and I don't blame you) on the subject, where I come around to yours and others line of thinking. I try my best to keep an open mind and definitely realize there are those here with more wisdom and experience than I: ..................................................................................... To: JayGalt I will hope and pray that you are correct and truly appreciate your thoughts on a powerful subject. I am going to take a very deep breath and defer to the wisdom of you and others here and continue my faith that there is a plan at work bigger than I can see and understand right now. Thanks again. 222 posted on ‎3‎/‎24‎/‎2018‎ ‎9‎:‎54‎:‎55‎ ‎PM by bramps (It's the Islam, stupid!)

“...heavily taxing remittances sent to Mexicans by family in the US”

An excellent idea.

Billions of dollars are sent to Mexico by illegal alien insurgent criminal invading non-assimilating colonists.

I’ve been suggesting that for a long time.

Being as much of the money is made illegally-ie under the table with no taxes paid on it-it makes sense to use that money.

That would fit with the narrative of having Mexico pay for the wall.

Money from these invaders is the largest money making source for Mexico.

If millions of Mexican nationals marched back to Mexico and held their government accountable they could be a rich country.

The Mexican overlords completely run their natural recourses in a sloppy manner

Just successful enough for the many crooked billionaires to steal the money and keep the populous close to being in abject poverty

Easier to control that way.

someone once challenged me to take my car out to the freeway, gun it up to bout 80 mph, take my hands off the wheel and trust God to bring me home safely. Your ideology makes just about as much sense.

Well, I am at least happy that you think enough of my magnificent brain to think that I am a mind reader and would consequently know what you are talking about given that this thread has over 500 posts and I wrote more than one.

It isn’t just the illegals. Legal immigrants and guest workers send a lot of money back across the border too. We ought to have very high taxes on all remittances, no matter who is sending them abroad.

Yes I know and yes they ALL should give some back to the USA for the priveledge of making money here.

Legally or illegally

Doing this would be Mexico paying for the wall.

A caravan of more than 1,500 families including men, women, and children are making their way from Central America through Mexico and are expected to arrive at the US-Mexico Border in the coming days to request refugee status. They are arriving within 24 days ...
Dear Donald , You have done Too Little ...Too Late
The Wall should have already been completed by now.

I took out one poster with a 2012 signup who hadn’t done jack until the last two days who went ballistic with over the top rants. Old timers here can vent all they want as I can tell from their posting history that they are here for the duration and not just to stir up agitation, but I have done this long enough to smell a lame concern troll from thirty paces. Yeah, that is who I am.

Interesting. :)

I, too, have a nose for trolls.... but, alas, I shall never be an AM.

There are a few trolls that camoflauged well. Most notable was someone called TNMOUTH. He was very clever.... he'd broadcast conservative messages to get his bona-fides, then be an all-around d**k to stir up arguments. When I called him on it, he'd go quiet long enough that he thought the danger of banning would pass.

Finally nailed him, though, and JR and you guys seemed to agree.
