one critical detail is that the wall only makes it harder for NEW Mexican immigrants to reach the US... it does nothing at all to existing immigrants, so cost before and after will be about the same...
another critical detail is that the $100B someone posted earlier is for ALL immigrants, Mexico accounts for perhaps 25% of immigration to the US...
