It costs about $1.3 million a mile. Now we are spending $8 billion on our southern border. $8 billion. That is $4 million a mile every year. and we are paying Border Patrol people to drive back and forth on HUMVEES. to park and look at it and be a deterrent just for being there. and we are paying all the administration that it takes to support the people and. of course. their weapons and all the technology. And I am for supporting this wall with additional technology. And it is okay with me if they want to fly drones around and let us know when people are approaching the wall.
