Then there is the fact that many people drawing unemployment receive much less than minimum wage in benefits.

I have no idea how many live within "driving distance" (however far that is) to the border or the skills they posses. Do you really think everyone that will be employed building such a wall already live within your prescribed distance or already posses the skills necessary. I should have mentioned something about a chance to learn a trade.

The most current data I can find has the National average unemployment pay at $294 a week that works to $7.34 and hour. That's $.10 higher than the Federal minimum wage. I say we let them keep the extra dime.
