It is a hybrid military/law enforcement problem. Military because the nation's borders are being violated, aided and abetted by a foreign government. (Fox and his crowd, and others before him.) Law enforcement because the laws are being broken by both the intruders, and by persons on our side of the border who aid and abet the infiltration. Check the ddemographic change in Chicago in the past 20 years.
Infiltration is a military tactic. To counter an infiltration in a flexible defense, you need active patrolling and an integrated surveillance scheme. Air assets are already provided, but they need to be boosted, and then augmented by UAV's.
Closing off this invasion also supports the infamous "War on Drugs" and the "War on Terror" and might have an effect on the old "War on Poverty" if a tighter labor market raises wage levels, but I am not so sure about that last bit.
Infiltatrion is also a strategy. It has been the strategy of La Raza, and other groups both within and outside of America, who wish to overturn the Treaty of Treaty of Hidalgo Guadalupe, 1848, for about the last 50 years.
Think Kosovo, on the Rio Grande.
Mexico received a bailout from Bill Clinton of around 58 billion dollars. The thanks we get is the governments of Mexico not only ignoring their side of the border, but pass out maps of
Infiltration Routes.
I wonder: wouldn't it be ironic if those maps were provded by a few of the drug runner cartels who use them, and who have cousins in the Government.? It would not surprise me.

It really doesnt matter what terms you use, its a static border and a wall/fence helps secure a static border.
Id really need to see the costs I mentioned to form a final opinion, but if cost wasnt an issue a wall would help.
