We desperately need The Wall. [View all]
Reposting from GD as it dropped like a dying polar bear......as it addresses both topics equally, I thought this would be a better place to get visibility and comment. Added a little further detail, too.
But not the environmental / economic / social disaster that Trump and the complicit Republican Party are selling.
A wall system must be planned and built around both coasts to address the coming sea level changes caused by massive climate change and melting ice caps. This directly affects major population areas and regions that will be severely disrupteed or destroyed if we continue the do-nothing vision of the GOP. This truely is our #1 national security issue.
Our climate will be our children's children living nightmare and a sure end of the grand experiment known as the USA.
When will Congress unite and address the #1 existential threat to this country? Constructing the wall will have lots of positive impacts on our economy with immediate boost to meaningful jobs that will define our vision for protecting this country's future.
Solar panels and wind generation could also be incorporated into the wall systems, further reducing our dependency on foreign oil and the costs paid by taxpayers (see USN/DOD) to get and secure Big Oil's product to market. Why aren't we billing Big Oil for services rendered?
This is The Wall vision/message that I wish Democrats - in a unified clear voice - would work on and communicate to the American people now, in advance of the 2018 elections.
