What is fact, is the whole process is not stream lined at all. The DHS gets their information from the Airlines, Boats and over land, and we can all agree that Mexico is horrible with data communications, Canada has been terrible as well but they are implementing so new programs that should help their overstays.
Where are you getting your info from? I took mine straight from the 2014 report from DHS https://www.dhs.gov/sites/default/files/publications/FY%2015%20DHS%20Entry%20and%20Exit%20Overstay%20Report.pdf
Less than 100k overstayed their visas that were from Mexico. That's a significantly smaller number than the number of people coming over the border.
Your numbers are garbage because they only deal with people arriving byb boat or airline.
Here are more exact numbers
According to a 2006 Pew Hispanic Center study,1 nearly half of the 12 million-plus illegal aliens in America arrived legally with temporary, non-immigrant visas. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) estimates that a “substantial” percentage of America’s illegal population is made up of visa overstays — their estimates range from 27 to 57 percent.

So a giant wall would be a waste of money since it does nothing to stop half of the illegal immigrant problem.
