New York Post: Actually, we can’t afford not to build the wall

By , Betsy McCaughey

President Trump launched another battle for border security on Monday, calling for $8.6 billion in funding for the Wall in his proposed federal budget for next year. Predictably, top Democrats came out swinging, bashing a border wall as “expensive and ineffective.”

Truth is, the Democrats aren’t leveling with the public about the billions we are already forced to spend on shelters, food, diapers, medical care and childcare for migrants sneaking across the border and claiming asylum. Not to mention the costs of public schooling and health care provided free to migrants once they are released into communities.

Of course, it's ALWAYS been this way.

$20 billion for the wall is mere chump change in comparison to what it will cost the citizens if it's not built.

Then again, if it's not built, the cost (in dollars) will make no difference, because the country itself will be lost.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Well, DUH!

That's what we've been saying all along.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
