OK, this guy's a little nuts (after all, who among us doesn't want to marry their laptop)...but, you gotta admit this would fund the wall in about 3 days.

Shiny sea! This guy....
As long as there is enough funding for a spike to house Maduro's head, I'm good.
Is there any kind of plan out there that shows what $5.7B would pay for and what the benefits are? I don't understand the secrecy. It's not like the wall, once built, would be cloaked by the Romulans. The finished product can't be a matter of government secrecy. If the plan isn't ready for public consumption, then why are we being pushed to approve the spend?
Um, gambling isn't spending. Gambling is earning. Geez. Get it right.
I wonder how much of that is in 'squares' at Super Bowl parties. Also, those numbers seem a little tough to get to. Of the 2,200 people the "American Gaming Association" surveyed, 10% of them said they would bet, and apparently an average bet of nearly $300 each. They then seem to have just applied that ratio to the entire US population over 18 to get $6 billion. I'm not sure their survey is statistically realistic. It's as though the gaming association has something to gain by making states believe they are missing out on a chunk of $6b of revenue.
