I say if they have the proven technology, let them have at it.
I read somewhere that there was a Mexican company that wanted to build it.
Let them do it, under supervision of course.
Since we gave them $38 billion in aid, will that cover it?
Making Islamocrat heads explode.
I see no reason we only can have one company involved.
Split the border up in 100-mile sections. Have the top company work five of them. The next company four. The next three. The next two. That makes 1400 miles, accounted for.
Then split the rest up into 100 mile sections, and have the rest work on that wall as you see fit.
Put the top company on the most critical.
The second company on the next most critical.
That way you will rapidly get the entire border wall built, and you will reward the top bidders with the best contracts.
Just my opinion.
Sounds good. You wanted the best, you got the best. Applies to more Israelis than Gene Simmons.
Geez the israelis know how to build good wall systems.
everyone keeps griping about the price which some say will be approx $15 billion dollars- plus maintanance fees each year- but the reality is that once the 15-20 billion dollars is paid, maintaining will be moot compared to what we will save every single year- it is costing our country between $400 BILLION dollars and $600 BILLION dollars every year because of illegals-
some studies think it might even be higher- this of course takes everything into consideration such as housing them in prisons at $125 per day per inmate, not to mention the money they waste filing frivolous lawsuits etc- but the price of trials, the price victim’s families have to pay, the price victims have ot pay for things like hospitalization, therapy lawyers- money taken out of our economy and sent over the border etc etc etc-
Even if the wall cost us $400 billion- We would save that and more in just the first year if we also deported criminal illegals and clamped down on illegals like we should be doing- but at just $15 Billion? I’d say it’s a no brainer- build the wall- it’ll save hundreds of billions of dollars a year- and trillions in the long run
Meanwhile, I can’t even watch Raymond reruns on TV Land without seeing ads for Lopez. “I’m all for building the wall . . . as long as it’s not heavy enough to collapse the tunnels we already got under there!” FOAD, kidney thief.
Alternatively, you could also have the wall built in a two-step, process.
The first step would be to deploy a wall, for the entire border. A serious wall, with full-time computer monitoring, this would probably shut off 99% of illegals crossing, immediately.
Then you have a later slower step, where you build a real strong border. That would be a real border. Which would stop everyone.
Do the bidding for each step, but build the wall first. Then have companies go back out, and finally build a real, impregnable real wall later.
Tall. Monitored, and basically insurmountable.
But get the basic wall built first, in less than one year. Then improve it with a much more significant wall, later.
Just my thoughts.
You would of course have doors, wherever you need to have access, such as international freeways. But even those would have doors which can shut.
Make the border completely impregnable. Every inch.
Start however, by building a basic wall, over the entire border.
My thoughts.
An Israeli company might get a design or technology contract, maybe even a Prime Contract - but the great bulk of the sub-contracting will have to be American workers and materials.
Just as a practical and political consideration.
In Israel they also have electric fences which I think is a great idea here..have one of these vermin try to cross the border illegally and watch them become a crispy critter
Should be built by Americans ; maintained by Americans and patrolled by Americans.
Take a look at the linked pic. Too bad we can’t put armed troops on the border with orders to shoot trespassers. Bet that helps secure the border more than the fence or wall.
I say if they have the proven technology, let them have at it.
The company is MAGAl Security Systems?? How cool and appropriately named would that be?!
Duh...an American company to build our own wall. Thanks, but no thanks Israel.
We put a man on the moon in 1969.
We can build our own friggin’ wall.
The wall should be built by an American company that employs American workers using American materials.
