Next Monument or Feat of Engineering

[Seventy_Yard_FG]

Propose or predict the next monument.  Trump almost got a wall.  China has the Great Wall of China.  There’s the Panama and Suez Canal, or the Hoover Dam, projects which claimed many lives.  Pyramids.  English Channel tunnel… what’s it going to be or what should it be?

Mine?  A tunnel to China

No inventions.  I mean monumental construction projects

An international airport built in the middle of all of the Chinese bought farmland.

After spreading around enough cash and prostitutes that airport will be repurposed as the Chinese US embassy and cultural center in an effort expedite export of  produce and the spoils of industrial espionage.

Use a sharpie to mark the correct side. Same with phone chargers.

A tunnel that sends water from areas of the US that get rain, hurricanes & flooding to areas out west that have water shortages, drought and wildfires.

Sharpie would just rub off after a few uses

I did it 2 years ago, hasn't rubbed off yet. You could also use a sticker or piece of colorful tape.

On the Trump 'Great Wall'

 

After 4 years and $15 billion or so dollars, we have

80 miles of new barriers have been built where there were none before - that includes 47 miles of primary wall, and 33 miles of secondary wall built to reinforce the initial barrier.

 

What an accomplishment.

I think this is probably one of those $80 hammer and $1000 toilet seats.  That money didn’t all go toward a wall.  Maybe in the next decade we’ll find out through some kind of scandal that generates media attention for maybe two weeks before we shrug it off 

 

best we can hope for is the scandal happens during a Democrat presidency and we score a few cheap points in the next rigged election

You should stop bringing this up. You are a guy with zero conviction in his beliefs, so by constantly repeating those beliefs you look weak minded and pathetic.

The wall funding scandal already happened.  Trump illegally diverted funds from the military to the wall construction.  And then parts of it fell over in a stiff breeze.  The whole thing was a boondoggle.

That’s what they want you to think.  Where did the money go after it "went into the wall”

That's what the circuit courts ruled actually.  He illegally diverted funds to pay for the waste of money.  Who knows where some of it went, but wherever it was, it was probably a better use of money than a wall that falls over when the wind blows.
