            Emperor Hongwu just decided that he is going to reconstruct the Great Wall.  This is a very bad idea because there is so much to rebuild and it won’t all be done under the control of one emperor.  The wall will take too long to rebuild and will take several emperors-with different ideas-to fully restore the wall.  There also will be a lot of people working on the wall other than doing their own jobs to support their families. I understand that once the wall is fully rebuilt, it will be stronger than ever.  At the same time parts of the wall that are being rebuilt to become strong will also become weaker and easier for enemies to attack.  In conclusion, the reconstructing of the Great Wall is a bad idea.
