Shutdown watch: How the US pays for Trump’s border wall may leave a costly legacy

As the partial government shutdown has extended past a record 21 days, the economic costs are rising.

Depending on the ultimate size and reach of the wall, it could cost up to $25 million per mile and take years to build; calls from the White House for $5.7 billion would only cover about 230 miles, or about 11.5 percent of the southern border’s distance.
Lol 25 million a mile?
Thats like 5 grand a foot. I'll do it for half that ...... party on my island when i'm done.
