Cost to US Taxpayers = $113,000,000,000 per year
Length of US-Mexico Border = 1,969 miles

We could take the equivalent of what illegal immigrants cost us EACH YEAR, and invest that money into building one monstrous wall, at the cost of $57,389,537 per mile, or $10,869 per FOOT.

One year’s worth. I’m just sayin’.”

I second that motion.

Excellent calculations !!!

Puts it all into perspective.

Thanks...I didn’t expect it to be that drastic, but after calculating, I myself was blown away!

Glenn Beck needs to hammer these numbers home!
