As Hillary Clinton said during the 2016 debate, the American taxpayer, not Mexico, is going to pay for Mr. Trump’s border wall. During the Republican Retreat in Philadelphia on 26 January 2017, Speaker Ryan & Senator McConnell confirmed that to be true when they said that Congress will provide $12-$15 billion of our tax dollars for this structure. Mexico has emphatically stated that it is not paying for a newly constructed U. S./Mexico wall. So the burden for this will fall on the U. S. taxpayer.
I propose a different funding mechanism to pay for this edifice since Mr. Trump is determined to build it. My proposal is this: make every single American, 
regardless of age, get a U. S. Passport. Instead of paying $110 for the document, everyone pays $210. The extra $100 goes into a special fund to build the wall and any other monuments Mr. Trump may want in the future. There are approximately 296 million citizens in the United States (out of a population of 318 million). If every citizen paid $100 dollars into this fund, the fund would have $29.6 trillion dollars. This solution is a win for everyone who wants to crack down on immigration of all kinds.
Everyone will be required to carry their passport with them at all times. Any law enforcement officer or military personnel can ask for your passport (he may call them “papers”) at anytime and you would be required to show it to them. If you don’t have it with you or it has expired, the officer arrests you and you stay in jail until your status can be determined. If you are an American citizen who has forgotten his passport or failed to renew it, you’re released when your new passport arrives – at the jail. You’ll be billed at the daily rate of Trump Hotel Washington D.C. for your stay in jail. You must settle your bill before you can leave incarceration.
If you don’t have a passport because you’re not a citizen, your possessions and property will be confiscated to pay for your ticket to Alaska which will become our new immigration center. In Alaska, a final solution to your undocumented status can be achieved. In world history, other countries have used this type of solution to clarify their citizenry problems. It’s worked before (to a limited extent) and I’ve no doubt that this will work here.
While I’m, of course, joking with the above solution, there is another alternative. Simply, hire 2,400 more Border Patrol agents and don’t build the wall. Either way, one solution costs a minimum of $12 billion dollars (and perhaps satirically our personal freedoms), while the other solution costs perhaps $120 million with no freedoms at risk. As someone whose going to foot this bill either way, I know which one I prefer. What about you?
