#1 Good. Next extend it, first with re-used scrap metal, then properly, along both southern and northern borders. And I don't think it's inappropriate to make this a military expenditure -- defence of the Nation should include protecting the borders from invasion.

#2 What are we talking about here? 1500 miles in need of a fence?

Let us say $500/ft. Do the math.

1500 miles x 5280 ft/mile x $500/ ft = $4 billion

Cheap at twice the price. Lets get building and cut the BS. [/real world math lesson]

#3 In most countries defending ones boreder is a military job, I don't know were we got the idea that a law enforcement agency should be doing that. TSA should have no part of it. Screw the treaties with Mexico that are against it. This is the new USA.

Mexico is a fart away from a revolution. We need a fence and military defending the border.

This is the right bill for that item.
