Sometimes you need to think outside of the box. This wall does not have bi-partisan support. It doesn't even have 100% Republican support. However, if you suggest a lottery, that means that the people must choose to pay for it. What is Congress going to say - no, we can't allow the people to build the wall on their own dime if they so choose?

It brings this Member humor when trillions are spent annually without a peep by many Members here on tpf.....but 25 billion and to build a wall that would last for decades seems a "lot of money."
Uh...yeah. And then this same Member claims we need to remove politics from the debate.
No, I'm not making that up. Am I Dr. Who?

Is the wall being funded? No, it's not. If you would rather gripe about liberals than get the wall built, make your own day. Given the current state of affairs in Congress, the wall will never be built and all of the finger pointing in the world won't change the state of political polarization or the fact that more than half of the country could not care less about a wall. I suggested a non-political solution that would likely attract even those who have no interest in a wall to participate. Shrug.
