Lets cut the department of education at the federal level........give it back to state where it belongs.  We can fund all kinds of shit with that wasted money.

Nice work citing an article contradicting yourself dipshit. Why do we need a wall if the agents were able to seize the load without it?

Do you believe a wall will affect the drug trade?

Over 90% of all drugs in the US comes across that border.  It would have to have an affect

But Trump does and claimed credit for it when it was high. Therefore, it is his when it is low and he is bashing the Fed.

The Fed doesnt need to make all these statements about the market that makes people scared and sell off.  The economy is just banging away, jobs are plentiful, wages are rising, taxes are lower, revenue to the government is up.  There is no reason to scare the markets.

Don't you get all whiny when people say the same about more gun control? By the time the wall is done these people would already have a plan in place. They have nothing but time and an insane amount of money.

The markets are getting skittish.  If the Fed had come out and said they were pausing, the market freaks out wondering what the Fed knows they don't, and worrying things really are slowing down.

Maybe could have used different language, but sometimes you're damned if you do, damned if you don't.  I'd also guess with markets down overall this year that there was a lot of tax selling to create some capital losses and carryforwards.

90% may be correct - although it seems a little like a number you came up with. Regardless, don’t you anticipate the drug cartels just might be clever enough to find another way to move their product. I won’t be shocked if their new routes aren’t already being planned or even in use. Be practical. 

 

Trump’s wanting to spend all this money to keep these “bad ombrés” out.  It would probably be more impactful to wall off the east side of Cleveland or eastern Kentucky.

Google it and you will find numbers all over the place due to biased media.  Somewhere north of 70 billion.
