Mirthless posted:nah, that's totally middle management. most middle managers end up doing bullshit clerical work to fill their time. they could absolutely pay a guy minimum wage to do it, but they already pay this guy to hit approve a few times a day and reply to emails so he might as well add the dispatching to his list of responsibilities This isn't what I do at all, but you change keyboards for a living lol

Right now we have a ramshackle system of broken down fences. Imagine a giant, awesome wall down there instead. I mean, we all can agree that a big, kick rear end wall is way better than rusty butthole chainlink fences right

Naw. Walls are cool. Big construction projects are cool. It's just like a huge wall would be cool to see. Like the Great Wall of China. But it will be the Great American Wall . Just a way to show that we can still get things done if we pull together. Team USA

Sure. Do I really care about a wall, no. But after Obama and Lil Bush Jr spent 4 trillion dollars blowing up mud huts and ruining the world, do I care if they use 3 billion dollars builds a cool wall? At least its something instead of death

Moridin920 posted:Yeah but you gotta admit that's kind of the attitude of a whipped dog a little bit. I mean it is understandable to feel like that after we just spent ridiculous sums of money exporting death all over the world under the last two presidents but it is still a stupid waste of money. Don't you find the idea of a wall funny at least? I mean a wall to keep out Mexico? Lol... who would think of that.

I honestly think it's 2 separate issues. 1 is building a sweet wall, like a wonder of the world. 2 is immigration which is solved in smarter ways like tightening up law enforcement and entitlement programs. If we can throw down a gigantic wall, it shows the government is still capable of actually accomplishing something great
