In this episode, I discuss the recent news surrounding Donald Trump’s wall. An executive order signed yesterday (January 25) states that plans to construct a physical wall will begin immediately. Press Secretary Sean Spicer discussed a 20% border tax with Mexico that he claims could pay for at least a portion of the wall, while Speaker of the House Paul Ryan and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell will attempt to authorize $12-15 billion in funds for the wall. I discuss why (a) the wall is a poor use of taxpayer dollars, (b) a border tax punishes the U.S. just as much as it punishes Mexico, and (c) some immigration restrictions are necessary with our expansive welfare state. I also discuss contentious relations between the Trump administration and China over China’s activities in the South China Sea.
