FYI

the Israeli fence is costing $2 million per kilometer.

2000 miles of US-Mexico Border = approx 3219km x $2 million per kilometer = $6.438 billion construction costs assuming you need to build the fence the entire length. That figure does not include an obvious discounting for the sheer volume of work involved.
