I personally think that a physical fence is nothing more than a useless boondoggle. To be effective it must be able to stop people from breaching it or climbing over it. Every design I've seen is vulnerable. Two parallel fences with sensors and quick response teams might be able to stop incursions, but I don't see any other option. Our underlying problem is that the benefits and rewards for living and working in this country are so great that people will stop at nothing to get them. If the benefits dried up, I think the illegal immigration would dry up too. Mexico's political structure is so corrupt I don't see how anything short of an invasion could change it. For me, it makes more sense to invade Mexico and rebuild it from the ground up than it does Afghanistan and Iraq.
