Will there really be a wall? (Hint: Doubt it!) May be a fence... Of some kind... Perhaps buried sensors?... 2,000 mile shower curtain?... Or just something more economical? Do Not Cross Demagogue
Let’s see, we’ve got 2,500,000 miles of pipeline and only 139 federal inspectors, for 18,000 miles per inspector. So 1 border patrol guy will obviously be enough for 2000 miles…
President Elect Trump has stated emphatically that there will be a wall and unlike his wishywashy predecessor, President Trump will actually do what he says he will! Oh, and one way or another, Mexico will pay for it!
Of course there won’t be a wall. Don’t you know better to take the trump, now the prezident reject, at his word?! He’s to be taken seriously, not literally- his apologist talking head mouthpieces (eg Peter Thiel) have said so themselves!
As the security on the border has tightened the illegal population in the US has risen. Why? Because when people could come from Mexico for the harvest season and then return to Mexico easily, they would go back. Now they stay all year since it is more difficult to get to US in the first place.
If they really want to stop them a coming Depression will do it, our poor recovery has sent more back than brought them in since 2008. But if you really want to be barbaric plant mines and have plenty of signs in Mexican Spanish and they might just stop. But that isn’t what the Business men want. They want cheap labor to undercut US citizens.

A huge government project and a bureaucracy to manage it.
