they're proposing 1.375 billion for 55 miles of...something...wall, fence...whatever.
That's 25 million per mile!
I could round up used rail road track by the hundreds of miles(they replace a lot of that stuff). Buy it for 10% over scrap...cut it to length and pile drive that chit in for a hell of a lot less than 25 Million a mile.
We could add some pokey and slicy things where appropriate.
