If we had to wall the entire 2000 mile border it would be over $40 Billion.

Didn’t shillary “lose” 5 billion alone?

didn’t the military say it can’t account for FIVE TRILLION worth of expenditures!!?!

40 billion would be worth it except where there’s natural barriers or somebody’s farm is sticking out there :)

“If we had to wall the entire 2000 mile border it would be over $40 Billion.”

These are some of the most expensive miles to build. For flood control purposes, the base is a massive concrete levee, built to FEMA specs for hurricanes. Becasue it is a super hot spot for illegal crossings, each mile is tricked out with all the bells and whistles (lights, cameras, alarm systems). On top of it all, there is private land that has to be acquired or compensated.

In other places, good barrier is being built for $4 million/mile.

We don't need border walls.. we need mine fields and bleachers so we can see our DHS at work.

With a defense budget of 716 billion a year, this would be quite cost effective imo.

Remove all US troops from Europe and force NATO to pay for its share, and remove all troops from S Korea and expose the liberal South Koreans for who they are.

That will pay for the wall.

That is cheap compared to supporting illegal aliens and their anchor babies.

And this is the WRONG type of wall, and it's NOT tall enough. Pre Fab Concrete, smooth, hard to climb, PUT Electrified Concertina wire on top.
