Pros And Cons Of Building The Great Wall

    Last year when Donald Trump became President of the United States he wanted to build a wall that would seperate the U.S. from Mexico. He wanted to do this to stop any illegal drugs, terrorists, or weapons from crossing the border. Athough it was a good idea, many people were

But, how? The wall is just blocking on part or our country and that country being blocked could come up with other methods to act and find way to bypass the wall. Trump is a person who has many goals, but doesn't think through them He doesn't see the full effect of his ideas and how others would be effected. The wall would be useless and just cause more and more chaos. According to David Martin, a professor at Grinnell College, he wrote a article and said “This strategy is politically appealing for its simplicity, but it misunderstands the problems of globalization and migration it aims to address. Building walls has rarely has achieved its intended effect, and may result in wasted resources and lost opportunities for the United States.” Many walls have Ben built throughout the world and many of the walls seem useless. The wall that would be built by trump is t necessary, it's just a waste of resources. He also wrote “In U.S. history, building paper and concrete walls resulted in episodes that today are widely viewed by historians as inconsistent with our better democratic angels.” The U.S. building a wall won't help our economy won't help our country. In our past, the U.S. and other nations have tries this and they failed, so I can we say we will succeed. Donald Trump doesn't think thoroughly he plans and only acts on based upon what he sees, which will eventually lead to a decrease in our U.S.

Trump doesn't want any immigrants in the United States. The reason why Trumps wants to build the wall is that he wants to keep all the criminals, drugs, gang, and violence out according to Fox News. The budget plan for border security is $23 billion and $18 billion for building the border. Also, the prototypes will be 30 feet tall and 30 feet wide and it will cost up to $500,000. In other words, he says

The treaties between the United States and Mexico that prohibit the blockage of rivers across the border would be roadblocks in President’s Trump’s plan (Aguilera). Another one would be the Native American reservations along the borders. It would be a waste of time for the government to have the wall built only to have gaps within the wall due to restrictions. Trump would be able to get around these restrictions by convincing Congress to pass a bill that would take the land away from the Native Americans, but that would only start chaos. Most of the land currently without a border fence cannot withstand the construction of a wall because of the geography by which it is surrounded. Due to this, there will be gaps within the wall through which immigrants would be able to enter.

“What Donald Trump doesn’t want you to know about his plan to build a “Great Wall” between the U.S. and Mexico: He’d need to steal private property from Americans to build it” (Somin). Analysis: Ilya Somin’s use of tone and diction shows exactly what trump is doing and speaks in a sullen tone to inform people exactly how many Americans are losing their homes and lands to fulfil this large project along the borders of the United States and Mexico. “During the campaign, Trump promised that Mexico would fund

In previous years, many countries and territories around the world have attempted to build walls, and many have had very much success. For example, Most of the walls built after World War 2 and the Cold War still exist today. There were a total of 110 walls built between that time period. Professor Nazli Avdan led a study that had a goal of identifying if a border wall reduced or increased the risk of a transnational terrorist attack. This study found that since the year 1900, transnational terrorist attacks have seen a thirteen percent annual decrease in countries with border walls (Border fences reduce...attacks). This has been a real focal point that President Donald Trump has used to get people to agree with him. Another reason of his includes the disrupting of the funneling of illicit money and drugs into the United States of America (Border fences reduce...attacks). The bonus of the building of the wall is that it will be a visible sign of the government taking action.

In fact, Stew Magnuson an author and journalist explains the drastically long period of time that it will take for a hardship like this “The Trump Wall will never be completed as envisioned before the new president leaves office even if he were to win a second term. In fact, it’s a safe bet to say a nearly 2,000 mile-long wall on the U.S. border with Mexico is a pipe dream” as the workers to put on this wall to make it happen in less than 8 years it would cost even more to the budget of 1.2 billion dollars to buy materials for this enormous wall (Magnuson). As President Trump claims it will take at least a year to accomplish this wall, it is believed that it will take longer than possible a decade of work (Moller). With the preparation, the workers, and the funding to make this project set into play, will still take over a decades of work; in fact, it took the Chinese 2,000 years to build the great wall (Griffiths). Although, the executive order is signed for the building of the wall, still many disagree on its intentions to fix a not as important problem in society today. Many do not agree according to a poll by the Washington post that states “Washington Post-ABC News poll: Sixty percent of adults oppose building a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border, while 37 percent support it. Of these respondents, 47 percent are strongly against it. It is worth noting that 76 percent of Trump voters support it, while 91 percent of Hillary Clinton voters don't. But what the January poll also found is that even among those who supported neither of the candidates, the consensus (69 percent vs. 27 percent) is against building the wall” and even though the

He says this wall will cost in total of eight million dollars, and that Mexico will pay for it. The wall will span one thousand miles and be made of concrete slabs that will go up to forty feet high. Trump says this wall will look good, and be what a wall should really look like (Kessler). The wall that we already have on the border costed 2.4 billion, and only covers about one third of the border which is only about 670 miles (Kessler). So Trump wants to build a better wall, which has no grantee that it will work.

The illegal immigration issue and the security of the U.S. Economy have been two hot topics all over the news during the 2016 election champion. One main solution that now president Trump provided during his champion was building the wall along the side of the US southern border. Although many who voted for that he mostly agree to the idea, many others thought that was bad for the Economy, Globalization, and most importantly the U.S. Economy.

“The wall”: a hot topic among today's population. To build a wall or to not build a wall is the debate. The idea of building a border wall between the United States and Mexico was publicized by the 45th President of the United States, Donald Trump. President Trump’s goal is to keep out the flood of undocumented immigrants flowing across our border every day. "For those here illegally today who are seeking legal status, they will have one route and one route only. To return home and apply for re-entry like everybody else under the rules of the new legal immigration system that I have outlined today," (Bradner) said Mr. Trump. The wall is a viable solution to a crucial problem.

Donald Trump should build the wall in Mexico. It is a series of walls and fences along the Mexico-United States border. I believe Donald Trump should build the wall in Mexico because it will help to stop illegal’s from coming into the United States, the cost of these illegal immigrants, and we won’t be ‘’U. S. A” anymore.

VI. While increased security is needed along the border to better protect our nation from outside threats and for the greater good of both the U.S. and Mexico, Trump’s wall is not the answer.

"I will build a great wall - and nobody builds walls better than me, believe me - and I'll build them very inexpensively. I will build a great, great wall on our southern border, and I will make Mexico pay for that wall. Mark my words." (Allegri) Saith Donald Trump in his candidacy announcement in 2015. One year later, this seemingly ridiculous twaddle become a real consideration, along with his election which astonished a lot of people. While his pep talks in his speeches and debates did invigorate Americans and therefore won him a lot of supporters, Donald Trump's proposal of building a wall will have an adverse impact on U.S. economy and relationship with Latino commonwealths, and will create nationwide tension, but will not eliminate illegal immigration; therefore, reinforcement of border

Donald Trump is vowing to build a massive, impenetrable wall along the U.S.-Mexico border to keep out illegal Mexican migrants. The number of undocumented immigrants entering the United States has steadily declined since the turn of the century.Nobody wants to live in a country where people are afraid of their neighbors,and that is the exact message a border wall would send.This country was founded on immigrants. People come here to better themselves and their Communities.

On June 16th, 2015 the soon to be President, Donald Trump made his big presidential announcement “I will build a great wall. And nobody does walls better than me, believe me. Very inexpensively. I will build a great, great wall on our southern border and I will have Mexico pay for that wall. Mark my words.” following with his one of his ways he plans to make America great again. Throughout Donald Trump’s campaign building a wall on our southern border would become a immediate goal to complete if he was elected. After Trump won the presidential election he began taking some of his first steps toward fulfilling one the continuous pledges that defined his campaign. Trump’s fourteenth day in office on January 25th, 2017 he signed an executive order
