To me, and to any reasonable person, "Mexico will pay for the wall" means the Mexican government will pay the cost of the wall.  There was no chance of that happening.

Gold is just a shiny metal people decided was worth something.

Money is just paper based on the Gold that country has.....

Everything of value is only of value because we as a people have deemed it so.

The first sentence is correct.  

The second sentence is not true.  Money is not based on gold.  

The third sentence is arguable.  There are a lot of things that have value for very good reasons that go way beyond people deeming it so.
