Look at the bright side 50% of that money MUST be spent buying US made military hardware -- foreign aide trickle down economics. So, 25%? of that money is returned in US workers wages.
Build that fucking wall and the general contract administrator (Bechtel?) will earn $2 Billion off the top and cement plants will make fortunes. Money to be made on Wall Street of course
Maybe, 25% of the money spent will amount to US make work construction jobs.
So what the FUCK is the real difference?
Utility of the end product.
Israel is a weapons and military research asset for the USA -- that is what we get back.
DARPA's FY2016 enacted budget is $2.87 billion. The President's FY2017 budget request for DARPA is $2.97 billion.
Quote:
President Donald Trump?s ?wall? along the U.S.-Mexico border would be a series of fences and walls that would cost as much as $21.6 billion, and take more than three years to construct, based on a U.S. Department of Homeland Security internal report seen by Reuters on Thursday.
The report?s estimated price-tag is much higher than a $12-billion figure cited by Trump in his campaign and estimates as high as $15 billion from Republican House Speaker Paul Ryan and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.
