Cost Billions ! So What ! Build the DAMNED WALL...
A Large earthen wall could be build easily with a large diameter tunnel boring device such as used in building the Chunnel under the English Channel...
Sink it half-diameter — run it to dig a huge ditch throwing dirt up on the American side ... result - a Very Deep Moat and ah high wall - that could be enhance with a reverse of the process on the other side of the first wall — final result a high 40 foot wide wall 20 feet high and two 20 foot wide moats... Enhance with struts pointing out at a 45 degree angle over the moat facing the Mexican side then string many layers of concertina barbed wire on the struts... Fill the Moats with water. Bury concertina wire in the Moat facing the Mexican side. Highly automated — use a private contractor for the Tunnel drilling machines. Use the Army Corps of Engineers and Navy SeaBees for general earth moving and laying the concertina — Start at Brownsville, TX on one end — and start near San Diego on the other ... Skip sections of good existing walls and barriers - -go back and get them connected later...
