Of course we are. The people who truly are in favor of this wall do not have the balls to suggest they group together and spot the funding of it themselves.
I suppose knowing what percentage of my tax money will be paid towards it would help me accept it easier. If it's equal to the amount we pay to help the ones on food stamps then I'll hush about it.

I wouldn't be a fan if that's how it shakes out. It'd make more sense to put a 20% tariff on goods sold to Mexico - so that they'd be the ones paying for the wall. Not sure why that isn't the plan.
Again - snipers are cheaper and more effective than a wall.

Looks to be none of your tax money, other than 20% of what you purchase from Mexico.
So depending on how much avocados and cocaine you buy, that would determine your burden.
I spent quite a bit of time in Berlin in the early 70's. Nothing good comes from a wall, nothing....
I think Corona might be put out of business due to this. No way people are paying 20% more for that.
Do you think they will take that 20% without charging 20% on what comes into Mexico? That means America will be losing jobs. The very thing Trumps supposed to be creating. Nothing good comes from a wall, nothing.
I'm not sure. I'd assume that our products are more vital to Mexico than theirs are to us - if we wanted to push that until one of the two of us caved. Regardless, I don't see how jobs would be lost as a result.
I mean, preventing people from entering the country illegally is something good that comes from a wall. But I agree with you - that it might not be worth the money and hassle to get it put up. Which is why I'm in favor of snipers shooting everything that moves that crosses the border illegally. Could we agree on that as a cheaper more effective solution?
Mexico already charges taxes on imported goods. Another way we've been getting screwed
I don't think Mexico and Colombia are the same place.
Name me one trade war that either side won? We are doing a lot of shit without thinking it out. A lot .....
I assume that's the one you're referring to. Unless you just have never heard of El Chapo and his crew.
Look at half the crap you buy from WalMart....surprise. Mexico

A LOT of Fender Guitars are Made in Mexico! In fact, that is where at least half of their line is produced- Encenadas, Mexico.
I honestly couldn't tell you the last time I stepped foot in a Wal-Mart. Probably when I was at school at UNC. But I'd imagine if Wal-Mart had to raise prices on half their stuff, that'd be good for you, right?
The cocaine isn't from Mexico, however. And, I don't think cocaine is on the shelves at Walgreens... I checked.

I have no problem with WalMart raising prices but how about the people who voted him in?
I voted for him, and as mentioned, I can't remember the last time I've shopped there.
But - he needs to do what's best for the country, not necessarily those that voted for him.
Damn man at least ....what the hell you don't have a clue what you're talking about.
I'll pay the 20% on Salma Hayek. Mexico can keep everything else. I hate Mexican beer.
If had known taking a $100 from your dumb ass would make you this sour and pathetic I would have spared you the shame of having to show yourself.
Yeah you won a bet that makes you an expert on this clown
I like Dos Equis amber if it is draft. Besides that I'm with you. Corona is skunky. Tecate and Modelo are bad. Those are all I've tried.
The republican congress isn't on board with the wall either so I doubt it happens.
Those are imports TO Mexico from other countries. Not exports FROM Mexico TO the USA.
The link chick poasted was a list of goods that Mexico buys from other countries. (Imports to Mexico)
The things that allegedly will be taxed 20% would be goods produced in Mexico that are bought by the USA. (Imports to the USA, specifically from Mexico).
Therefore, the list is useless for this conversation.
Oops lol. I know we do get computer parts from them so I imagine there are other significant things coming over.
Does that mean we'll have to pay more to go here?
OP is dead wrong as usual. We are building 5 natural gas pipelines to Mexico and most of their energy source will be coming from the US. They will pay surtax for this to pay for wall and will have no choice. The Trump admin will not tell them or us this now because that would be stupid. Mexico is paying for this wall. end of story.
