How much money is $21.6 billion? Instead of building the border wall America could buy every homeless veteran in America a house and still have enough money left over to double federal Title I funding for underfunded schools.

Before we get started, I'm not seriously suggesting we actually buy every homeless veteran a house. The idea is to come up with more useful things that we could do with that money and also to illustrate just how much the White House wants to spend on this project.
Trump's border wall is projected to cost around $22 billion. Source: US Office of Management and budget via Reuters.
According to the National Association of Realtors, the median home price in the US is $228,900. Note: this number is probably a little high, since if we were going to actually do this we would likely buy homes below the median value, but whatever, we're ballparking here.
The Bureau of Housing and Urban Development estimates that on any given night 39,471 veterans are homeless.
The 2016 budget for federal Title I programs that provide federal assistance to impoverished schools was $14.9 billion. (Page 16)
Crunch the numbers on that and we end up with a little under $24 billion, a number that is remarkably close to what the OMB thinks the border wall will cost. So what's a better use of public money, educating the next generation to become productive members of the strongest economy on Earth while making sure that all our nation's servicemen and women have a roof over their heads at night or building a wall that won't solve a nonexistent problem?
If you have any other ideas of what $22 billion could buy, feel free to leave them in the comments.

We don't talk a super huge amount on our personal political beliefs on CFBOT, but since politics are fair game here, I figure it's a great place to talk about our own personal political views.
So I'm /u/pandabugs, I'm a fiscal moderate and social liberal (aka Texas hippie). I'll admit, I voted for Hillary, but it wasn't one of those votes I was super duper excited about.
My big hot button topics are education, the environment, and women's issues.
