I dont understand the anger in this topic over a wall. Seems people are more upset about it actually keeping people out than the cost.

The probelm is that a wall isn't a viable solution. It's expensive to build, mantain, and patrol. There are places that it can't be built which means it won't even really work the way Trumpers want it to. Let's not forget that there are people who own the property on which it will have to be built so the land will have to purchased, or imminent domained from people who don't want to sell, which is ironic since a good portion of the libertarian right opposes any use of imminent domain.

I'm fine with immigration controls and stopping illegal immigration. The wall is basically baby's first border control idea. It's impracticle, ineffective, and overly expensive but it seems oh so simple when pitched as a concept to the ignorant masses that make up a huge portion of Trump's voter base.
