Cause you know, Mexicans can't look up. Also they're too lazy to dig, and they haven't discovered ladder technology. God help us if they ever put together a wall research program.

God help us if they ever put together a wall research program. Except so fsr it has been effective, and has funneled illegal migrants into crossing a deadly desert wasteland, increasing the cost and risks of illegal entry The point of a wall isnt to be impregnable, it's to increase the cost of illegal crossing to the point where it poor unskilled laborers can't afford it

Drugs are a special case in that they're so valuable that even elaborate plans like tunnels and submarines still make economic sense. Not so much for people who are sneaking in to make less than minimum wage

Give them the choice of serving and becoming citizens or else having to crawl back to mexico I mean you can join the military as a non-citizen anyway, but this way there's more prestige

Actually us border patrol runs intensive sweeps looking for people in distress or need of aid. They've saved thousands of people who were abandoned by their hhuman traffickers and lrft to die. The funnel effect of the walls mskes it easier to keep those areas under surveillance, while the desert serves mostly to slow them down so it's more likely they are spotted

the main problem with building a wall is that we'll just have to do it again when texas secedes. we'd do best just to build a shorter wall straight across north texas

As much as we all like the idea of a 50 foot high steel wall with automated turrets realistically speaking having 50 meters thick of barbed wire most places would be incredibly cheap, like a few hundred million and more realistic to funnel people. WW1 style they had that poo poo up for a pittance and within a few months.

This assumes the wall would be using pre-cast concrete slabs and wouldn't have more complex upgrades like miniguns to kill the mexican invaders.

The current 640 mile wall cost about 3.5 billion The design isnt one giant wall, it's sections of wall and fencing with a "virtual wall" of sensors and cameras between them. So i bet it would really cost like 8-10 billion to finisn the other 1400 miles
