Did the price of the Wall just go up?

[safeinOhio]

Lots of steel in that wall.

1. Yup. Construction Rebar is not something you want to use recycled steel on.

So, it will go up in price for materials, and probably go up in price for the delays in scheduling trying to get enough good quality steel.

3. That isn't factual.

Over 90% of the rebar made today is made from recycled material.

2. You bet construction like that requires rebar.

4. Fake news!

Mexico is going to pay for the wall.
Can't remember where I heard that but I know I heard it a lot.........

5. Nothing like fueling inflation with stupid idiotic decisions.

redumbliCON deplorables did this and we need to make sure it is front and center in everyone's mind.

[malthaussen]

6. No, because there's more steal.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

7. See through steel is expensive

But it's better than having a 60lb bag of drugs suddenly drop on your head.

9. We're talking about steel, not aluminum

Good old 'Murican steel, the ferrous metal, keeps those coal mines in business. Did I mention how many millions of coal jobs this will create? Bigly coal jobs! Aluminum is for pansy foreigners and fancy boys sipping at their imported beers.
