seek100plus Report post Posted January 11, 2017 I find it amazing , what you hear and learn . Word on the construction jobsite. Cartel will be doing some shooting practice to workers on the wall . Being a construction superintendent , you couldn't pay me a million a year to be shot at or having my workers shot . I can see why Trump says Mexico will build wall ,it will bring money to workers to Mexico and save American lives building it . Coming from construction back ground ,this wall will take forever ! Being a Federal job ,cost will be triple a state job. Just think ! Machinery needed , workers needed , inspections needed , material needed , life insurance , engineering needed . This wall will be crazy , for years . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brademan76 Report post Posted January 11, 2017 Nah, Trump will have it done in 2 years, half price and have drone surveillance near construction to engage anyone within 2 miles from the south.., or at least that what everybody wants to believe.

StickFlicker Report post Posted January 11, 2017 The most expensive and unrealistic part of building the wall, that nobody ever seems to consider, is the amount of private land that will have to be condemned and purchased in order to build it. There are a lot of private ranches with land along the border. That's a LOT of money. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BOWUNTR Report post Posted January 11, 2017 I'm sure the landowners would gladly give up some ground for that kind of security, which they haven't had for decades. Waiting for this.... Ed F 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are a lot of private ranches with land along the border. That's a LOT of money. With my experience in the civil engineering side of things, I would bet the government owns more than enough "easement" or "Right-of-Way" along the border to construct just about anything they want. If anything a few temporary construction easements may be needed but those are generally cost free besides a recording fee at the proper county recorders office. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
