Solving the Border Issue

Here's a quick thought:
Length of US-Mexico border: Roughly 2000 miles long
The .50-caliber M-107 sniper rifle's max. effective range: Roughly 2,000 meters

Price of 1,000 M-107 sniper rifles and associated remote-control and NVG equipment: Approx. $150 million ($10 million for the rifles, $140 million for the remote control and other associated equipment)
Cost for support services (ie, reloading, maintenance, etc.): Approx. $250 million per year.

Price for individual membership to www.bagmeanillegal.gov: $99.95 per year.
Number of subscribers needed for said service to recoup yearly costs: 2.5 million
Additional cost structure:
-Shooting session: $49.95 per 1 hour round (10 shots)
-DVD Recording of session: $9.95 plus shipping
-Your dead illegal: Bagged, tagged, and gagged: $499.95 plus shipping

Return on Investment- Priceless.
Ain't capitalism great?
