From Raw Story:
The state of Texas spent a $2 million federal grant to install 14 Webcams along its border with Mexico. After its first year, the crowd-sourced surveillance program is out of money and has only yielded 11 arrests, according to published reports.
$2,000,000
By my calculation, that works out to $181,818.18 per person.
