Don't build a wall.
Build a wal-MART.
The walmart would stretch the entire 2000 miles of border between the US an Mexico.
Americans come into the front of the walmart to shop.
Mexicans come into the back of the walmart to work at decent paying jobs.
The lower I set my standards the more accomplishments I have.

The parking lot is a little closer to your house though - why not keep things business as usual?
