According to the results of an ABC News and Washington Post poll released Sunday morning, 42 percent of Americans support a wall. That is up from 34 percent one year ago and a previous high of 37 percent in 2017. With 54 percent, the majority of Americans polled still oppose building a border wall. However, that opposition is shrinking, as 63 percent opposed the wall a year ago and the previous low was 60 percent two years ago.

Main think I learned in college Statistic classes was that you can prove just about anything with numbers..... and depending on what your agenda is, either side of a question.

The upkeep for such a wall(if it can be build) is going to be $150 million a year. Then you still have people coming in legally, they just stay here longer then what they are suppose to. There are better more efficient ways to have a secured border. Something to consider I say.

It's not even the cost of 1 day of interest payments. Just the interest payment for today --- is greater than the entire wall! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually the deficit is still in excess of 750 billion dollars. The issue of big govt spending is a problem with both parties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard that the deficit went up. But I will need to re-check the data on that to be sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
