I suppose if you wanted upgrades to your 4x6 posts, maybe more concrete reinforcement and razor wire or something, the price might be a bit higher, but again this doesn't take into consideration volume discounts you might be able to negotiate for a project this size. If you're able to incorporate a CRL when the wall passes through parts of Montana and North Dakota, you know, to spur development, that might help cover some of the costs too.
And it would be a government contract, so pricing would be about $5.0 bil
