    We have private schools. The problem is, accountability. Under Trump and his so called sec of education, there is less accountability. The right might enjoy that freedom, but having kids that don’t qualify for colleges coming from a school with no accountability, is not good.

    Secondly, private schools are notorious for poor salaries. That doesn’t attract the better teachers. Trump Unicersity is an example of scam education institute popping up if private education is allowed to flourish.

    The steel in these walls is pourous and easily cut through. It’s not hardened steel. You seem to know little about construction. Hadened steel makes the cost of any wall go up exponentially. They don’t use it.

    Wall? What wall? That sad old piece of fiction dates to the Pope saying we should build bridges not walls and Trump fans took it personally and do what they do, make things up. Trump wants a wall that his fans will call Trump's wall and he will be pleased. It serves no function other than that. It will stop no drugs, keep out few, if any, people and waste money that could have gone to the Coast Guard and improving detection at border crossings. Trump has done nothing to deserve a monument to himself.

    So which is it ?
    There seems to be a lot of double speak. What are “censors ?”
    Wow, a wall you can go around. You forgot about boats didn’t you ?

    Been a contractor for over 30 years.....probably while you were soaking up Marxist philosophy in public supported school. Even cutting soft rebar with a sawzall is a chore. You don't know what you are talking about. Pictures don't give the whole picture. During the activity shown which takes some time, sensors would alert the Border patrol, and now the lawbreakers not only violate American Sovereignty.....they do felony destruction. Prison time or a stint cleaning up our forests!

    Try to borrow some common sense from a neighbor. When you wall off any amount of access area, you concentrate illegal crossing where it is easier. Much easier to man. That is why you open border types hate the wall and rail against enforcing immigration. Find another way to get votes for comrade Bernie.

    Certainly no wall as claimed. Claimed over and over until people actually believe it.

    A wall can be high security. Anything to keep invaders out. That is all that is desired to be accomplished. Waterways need boat activity. Steep mountains are secure in themselves. So, does the vatican welcome with open arms anyone that wants to visit without security?

    The law of diminishing returns applies. When you spend billions on extending a wall into places people rarely try to cross and drugs don't cross you start spending hundreds of thousands of dollars per illegal deterred. At the same time you could bolster the Coast Guard with the tools it needs to catch drug and people traffickers and get a far, far better return.

    Now you're grasping for straws to save face, just let it drop is your best plan.

    Everything takes an act of congr
    oh, now you’re saying that they can be cut, but it takes some time. The truth is, walls are already constructed in areas where most effective and sensors are placed elsewhere. Trump couldn’t get the Republican controlled Congress to fund his wall. Now you blame the Dems who voted the same way. There is one idiot who steals money from the military for politics....that’s Trump. Meanwhile, visa overstays with the cooperation of businesses is the real problem and its ridiculous to pretend otherwise.

    Except, there are more Mexicans leaving then coming in. It’s been that way since before Trump.

    If you were a contractor that had anything to do with rebar, you’d know it’s not neither soft or hard consistently but made from scrap metal.

    but whatever...metal cutting blades handle the steel used in these walls, effectively. I should know. I own a fleet of hardware stores, am a metallurgy engineer, test pilot and do brain surgery on the weekends, mostly on people like Trump who claim to know more then the experts.....

    “ answer” ....It really is, our constitution. That is a social doctrine designed to protect personal rights including ownership of personal property. Socialism is paying tax monies to cops who stop theft of personal property.

    You're understandably confusing socialism with autocracy and racism. You also don’t seem to understand what a mixed economy is.

    You're lying. Everyone knows that if you own several hardware stores it's a spread of hardware stores not a fleet.
    I actually did a study on this when getting my MBA from Harvard at 14.

    Well, my hardware stores stretched from the naval shipyard to the marine patrol repair facility so I was forced into calling them a “ a fleet”. How about a “ gaggle”.

    Funny, I was a professor at Harvard for many years too. Maybe we knew the same Berniephobes ?

    If all we had to do was think, they’d be no Trump supporters.
