To build the wall or not build the wall

Each year, Mexico’s drug cartels move $64,000,000,000.00 (billion) in heroin, meth, ecstasy, MJ and dozens of other drugs across the 1,952-mile border with the United States. (Source: Fox News, February 13, 2017, Cartels send $64B in drugs into US annually.)

In other words, millions of Americans pay hard cash to the tune of $64 billion each year to get high by various methods.  Year after year after year!

The addiction rates, the MS-13 murder rates, drug overdose rates and the endless tragedies cost 10 to 13 teen lives every hour in the USA.  The precise number of teens who die from drug overdoses every year remains unknown. However, in 2016, 47,000 lost their lives to a drug overdose.  (Source: https://www.promises.com/resources/overdose/many-teens-die-drug-overdose/)

Yet our U.S. Congress refuses to build a wall to stop the cartels and stop the deaths.

A whopping 350,000 pregnant illegal alien women cross the border annually to birth their anchor babies.  Those babies cost billions of dollars to house, feed, educate and medicate from age 1 to 18.

Yet our US Congress refuses to enact a law to stop the anchor baby phenomenon.

According to Dr. Steven Camarota of www.CIS.org , 500,000 illegal aliens cross U.S. borders annually.  They move into the workforce or they go on welfare. They push American workers out of jobs by taking minimum wages. They lie, forge identities, steal, shoplift and use America’s welfare systems to flourish in America— at a horrific cost to American taxpayers: $296,000,000,000.00 annually.

Those legal and illegal immigrants send cash transfers in the amount of:  $138,165,000,000.00 (Billion) in remittances was sent from United States to other countries in 2016.  (Source: www.pewglobal.org)

Yet, our U.S. Congress won’t lift a fighter to build a wall, enforce employment laws to stop employers from hiring illegal alien workers.  You can bet that the U.S. Chamber of Commerce greases a lot of Congressional Critters’ palms with green backs and bribe countless people in government.

In the past week, Somalian immigrants in Minnesota got caught defrauding our welfare system of $100,000,000.00 of our tax dollars. They’ve flying home with suit cases filled with $1 million per suit case in hard cash.  How can illiterate, uneducated Somalians defraud our top directors of welfare programs?  See how deep the corruption of the U.S. government?

Why does our U.S. Congress refuse to stop this incredible bleeding and raping of the American taxpayer?  Answer: because a whole lot of people in high places make a whole lot of money both here in the USA and in Mexico.

Can we American taxpayers stop this rape of our country, our kids, our wallets and our integrity?

A Tennessee congresswoman introduced a bill that would allow the American people to donate money to help build President Donald Trump’s famous border wall.

Rep. Diane Black, a Tennessee Republican who is also running for governor of her state, promised to introduce H.R. 5876, legislation that would create a “border wall trust fund” to which average citizens could donate. The funds would be used for “whatever it takes to build the wall,” according to Fox News.

“While Democrats block commonsense border security and put illegal immigrants before our families, we are going to put America first. Real immigration reform cannot be achieved without a secure border — President Trump has been clear about this since day one,” Black said. “The most important job of the federal government is the safety and security of the American people, and if citizens in our country wish to contribute to this effort, they absolutely should be given the opportunity.”

In an interview, Black, a member of the House Budget Committee, said that her bill would allow any American to donate money to help fund the wall. “I support President Trump in building the wall. It’s going to take big funds to do that,” she said, noting that Congress seems unwilling to raise the money for the job.

Black said that the bill patterns after the popular private enterprises such as GoFundMe where people can gather to support favored causes and help people who need assistance.

In reality, why do top Congressional career, corrupt politicians not want to see a wall built?  Answer: money and power.  Schumer, Pelosi, Feinstein, McCain, Bennet, Gardner, Flake, Waters, Lewis, Jackson, Green and hundreds of others elected to represent the U.S. Constitution—simply won’t and don’t.

Even with Americans paying interest on a $21 trillion debt, each of your senators and House members continue to screw you out of money, allow your kids to face drug addiction and they don’t mind letting you pay for anchor babies, illegal aliens working in your communities, and they especially don’t care about you or your family.

And yet, you keep voting them back into office for as many as 40 years like the venerable John McCain and/or Pelosi or Schumer.

As Mark Twain said, “No man’s life, liberty, or property are safe while the legislature is in session.”

Vote the Pelosi’s out along with anyone who has served more than 10 years, and build the Wall!
