Also, despite a lot of breathless reports that have tagged places like El Paso as dangerous, violent crime in southwest border counties has dropped by a third. El Paso and other cities and towns along the border are consistently rated among the safest in the nation. Of course, we shouldn’t accept any violence or crime, and we have more work to do. But this progress is important.

(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. In this case, Mexico supporting all those it is trying to export would be a VERY heavy toll on Mexico.

Total Governmental Expenditures on Illegal Aliens (Federal and state) $134B/year
[link to fairus.org (secure)]
Illegal immigrants cost taxpayers $116 billion annually
[link to www.watchdog.org (secure)]
Illegal immigrants receiving Medicaid costs taxpayers $18.5 billion annually
[link to www.watchdog.org (secure)]

Right now, ONE US Dollar is equal to $19.10 Mexican Pesos.

At US costs, lowered to $100Billion, times 19 pesos for every USD, that would cost Mexico $1.9 TRILLION PESOS
The GDP of Mexico in 2017 - $1.15 TRILLION USD
The GDP of Mexico in 2019 - $1.2 TRILLION USD - [link to tradingeconomics.com (secure)]

At todays estimates, $5 Billion USD will find about 200 miles of wall/obstacle/fence/barrier.


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
