I think the better approach would be to stack limestone (density of 170 lb/ft3 vs. concrete's 150 lb/ft3) and have very little environmental impact. Does it depend on height to be effective, or could it stack limestone just 3

Illegal immigration is a big problem that directly affects citizens, unlike the foreign interventionism in the Middle East. Do you really think 12.5+ million illegal immigrants isn't a big deal? The system isn't adequate if that m

I find human trafficking to be a greater offense than fishing without a license, and that doesn't work as an analogy. Do you really want law enforcement looking the other way on this issue? If you're smuggling children across the

Nah fam, those noble savages grew from the soil and never battled for territory, ever. /s

That's an entirely different discussion. War is war. You act as if no humans ever battled for the territory before the 19th century. Should Mexico let anyone in south of its border?

It can be argued that not being proactive about illegal immigration is also expensive: https://cis.org/Can-Border-Wall-Pay-Itself

Everyone is seeking better lives. That's not a justification to allow someone into your country. EDIT: If you're downvoting this, does this mean that there should be no regulation for who can enter a country?

What's the downside to requiring banks to purchase money from the government? Does it outweigh the benefit of the public wealth that would be created?

When a mortgage is secured the bank isn't using its money to pay for the house. Instead, it creates the debt out of nowhere and charges you interest for money that isn't at risk. Maybe someone with more knowledge than me can expla

Yes but there are a lot of variables to consider there. Most homes today are just drywall, OSB, and carpet when in the past they were lath and plaster, wood planks, and wood flooring. On the other hand people today also pay for AC, more plu
