My problem with the fence is two-fold:
1) I believe it is a waste of material and manpower that probably won't work well enough to make it worthwhile.
2) There are other ways of getting to the same solution without a drastic measure like a wall, such as strictly enforcing the laws on the books, or reforming the laws to make people WANT to become citizens.
Such as making it easier to be legal upon entry, a temporary amnesty for those already here with strict penalties for those illegal after the expiration of the amnesty, and even possibly an accellorated program to teach the language and basic American government. Hopefully paid for from the potential tax revenues from the new citizens. I think the first two are the critical parts, though.
