$2 billion is my guess, enough to build a 2000 mile wall. A lot cheaper than turning the southwest into a giant Tijuana llanteria/taco shop. It would more likely be around $80 billion but that is ok with me. I think the Isreali wall is estimated to cost $2 million per kilometer.

If we sat around and debated the cost of WWI or WWII, we would have never done one damn thing.
- What, I have to pay 16 trillion dollars to defeat Hitler when he never did anything to us??
The cost drops out of the equation if you believe in something.
In this case the pride and dignity of American traditions - which are NOT internalized by some 3rd world Socialist living here for 2 years - and the pride and the ideals of Western Civilization.
All of the other posters know nothing at all about them.

Nope, $2 billion was the cost to build the 700 mile wall, which takes in all of the areas of concern.
