Hey I always thought the border should be sealed.

Sealed? the whole border "sealed"?? that's a pretty neat trick. Sealed with what... like a 22,000 mile ziplock baggie? Looking into it on this wonderful internet we have, I find that bulk ziplock baggies are about $14,666 per mile. Over 22,000 miles of both sea and land border that gives us about 77.4 Billion dollars worth of ziplock baggies to do the whole thing. Though... somebody points out to me that there is a pretty simple "scissors" method to break this "seal". Any ideas on how to deal with that?

Sure, how about land mines?
