Assuming there is 2000 miles of border (just an estimate), that's 10,560,000 feet. At an estimated $150 per foot, that comes to $1.584 Trillion.

Did you mean 1.584 Billion??? Much smaller sum. I imagine that the border states spend this amount of money each and every year on services for illegals.

That's not much more than the L.A. Unified School district budget. More than half the kids in the LAUSD are "immigrants" (not classified, of course).
