Politics and environmental special interests are obstacles here, just as they are in the oil drilling, oil refinery building, nuclear power plant building, and a few other things that might just make things easier on us taxpayers...

This is from WorldNetDaily.com:
"The Bush administration plans to cut through the bureaucratic red tape and bypass environmental laws hindering the building of 670 miles of fence along the border with Mexico and finish the section authorized by Congress by the end of this year.
Federal officials said the administration will invoke two legal waivers sanctioned by Congress to overcome obstacles holding up construction in California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas, the Associated Press reported.
Officials have said the 'virtual fence' along a 28-mile section of the border in Arizona has been delayed by technical problems, and opposition from landowners along the border has delayed plans for the 670 miles of fencing.
The department previously used its waiver authority to build smaller portions, two in Arizona and one in San Diego."
