There's plenty of cheap labor down there. Why not hire all the illegals, pay them decent wages, and let them build from the Mexican side! Use the incarcerated ones from all us prisons, on the US side, for free, then send them home.
Have the SeaBees and the Construction guys from the Army and Marines to supervise, and provide technical and logistical support. Place armed troops along the border to sort them out!
I would think a lot of folk would go help for free! Plus, a few judges could assign some wayward yutes to help alongside the rest.
We should make it a national priority, but Jorge won't go along, and Juan wants to play in the La Raza sandbox!
First, most illegals are not coming here for work, they think this is their country.
They are not going to shut out other Mexicans.
Second, the fence is built with heavy machenry, tech support, and a sophsticated operation. This is not a simple fence.
We have had troops at the border but to do this job would take tens of thousands.
