Instead of spending 25 billion on a stupid wall, wouldn't it be wiser to do this?

Spend the money on financial aid, law enforcement aid for countries like Honduras. A lot of these people are not coming here because they want to, they are fleeing for their lives. It must be really bad in these countries for people to send their children alone on that long dangerous journey.


If the governments are corrupt we could do something about that. We could lead a world wide effort to help to bring aid to these countries. The UN, Red Cross and other world organizations could be brought in.

Wouldn't it be wiser to set up tent cities down there instead of Texas. We could give people a safe place to stay down there until things improve.

Fair question, why aren't the Democrats in congress calling for something like this?

1. Somehow I doubt that "law enforcement aid"

would accomplish anything in those countries.
