We all know how Liberals are so eager to spend someone elses money, right? How Did The Democrats Become The Party Of The Rich?

Over $2 Billion [link to www.newsmax.com (secure)] Obamacare Website Costs Exceed $2 Billion, Study Finds [link to www.bloomberg.com (secure)] (All values accurate at the time this is being researched and compiled) The CURRENT value of the British Pound is $1.31 United States Dollars The highest was about $2.09 around 11/2007 The CURRENT value of the Euro is $1.15 United States Dollars The highest was about $1.57 around 6/2008 The CURRENT value of the Canadian Dollar is $0.75 The highest was about $1.07 around 11/2007 Clearly the US Dollar is strong right now. The current purchase value cannot be denied, and it easily reasearched via historical graphs. Now, Here is where the idiots will chime in sayng "BUT MEXICO WAS SUPPOSED TO PAY FOR THE WALL/BARRIER/FENCE/OBSTACLE" One can "pay" for something and money never changes hands.

Now, As time goes on, the dollar will weaken once again, inflation is always going up, and the border wall/barrier/fence/obstacle will simply cost more in the future. $5 Billion in 2018 dollars (This is being made on 2/1/19) was just $9.6 Billion in 1990 [link to www.usinflationcalculator.com (secure)] |
