They've got fences up north too... although moreso of the "low" variety.

You guys should build one along the Mexican border. A high fence.
I'm all for that...

How much does it cost to put a high fence around, say 10,000 acres???
I believe the going rate is around $20,000 to $25,000 per mile. 10,000 acres is about 15 square miles, so, let's round down a bit and say 5 miles by 3 miles, that's 16 miles of fence, at $20K per, is about $320,000...
