If we're going to spend money, let's spend it on something worthwhile, not a wall that he only wants to build to appease his base.

When it increases revenues (taxes) it is taking money out of the economy. So whether the $5 billion is spent on the wall or something else, you're still putting it towards the American economy. I would just argue there are more beneficial projects that have a higher return on the investment than a wall on the border.

To both of you, but it saves the country so much money that would be spent on services for illegal immigrants that it will eventually pay for itself, while also allowing for more jobs to be available to citizens, as well as saving money on government agencies trying to stop illegal immigrants.

It eventually pays for itself and allows for more jobs to be available for citizens and the local economies to build.
