    So what is the tax percentage-wise? It sounds like a pretty high percentage.

    According to the list at the beginning of this thread, 9.6 billion is sent to Mexico from California alone. A ten percent tax on those remittances would yield $960,000,000.00!!!!! That's nine hundred sixty MILLION dollars!!!!!

    That's just on the remittances from California. What about the rest of the states? This could very easily pay for quite a nice border fence. Perhaps one like Chris Simcox was talking about building.
