There is no need to spend billions on a fence or other border devices. All that is needed is a crackdown on the demand side of the equation. Shut down a few businesses that hire illegal workers, and the demand for them will dry up overnight. Far fewer illegal immigrants will spend the time to come here if there are no jobs for them.
Well I was thinking more along the lines of Anchorage, AK whose
average temperatures never go above 65 degrees. Even a city like Mineapolis, MN would be better in terms of power cost than Atlanta.
Why aren't all large computer facilities located in cold-weather climates to begin with? Cooler summers and colder winters could cut electricity bills substantially. Special outside vents could be setup that allow colder air into the building from outside during the winter.
