An excellent example of Government vs. private sector achievement.

Keep up the presure people. We will win this illegal immigration war.

Fax your butt off to your elected representatives on illegal immigration. Let them know how you feel and do it often. I do it 3 times a week whethere they like it or not. I'm sure they are tired of hearing from me:

Put a bounty of $100 on each illegal alien trespasser and we're good to go. Free enterprise.

I think this "800K per camera" is actually for multiple pan/tilt/zoom cameras (night, visible, thermal), on large tower structures, plus all the infrastructure to power, control, transmit video, and harden them against vandals. Just an infrared thermal camera alone is @$60K. Comparing this to putting up fixed focal length, uncontrolled cameras on poles on private property, presumably monitored by someone nearby, isn't a fair comparison.
