Sheesh...

A local government can use “eminent domain” to rip homes down to get a high-tax paying mall built, but the Federal Government is not able to use that power to get a security fence for America built?

Something wrong here...

According to the local media, the Border Patrol hasn't offered anyone money for the land required or the lost water rights. Instead, they are asking landowners for permission to erect.

While most of the landowners have no objection to virtual fencing, physical fencing is different.

If and when the feds have to resort to eminent domain, the fence price starts rising even more.
