The wage discepensy is such that they can earn 5 times as much money here then there.  Then they get on their cell phones speaking spanish and plan their return to mexico where they will live like kinds.

Hurting big time, \n\nDon't get me wrong I am all for people that want to move to America and make a better life for themselves.  But Could they do it legally?  I don't think Mexicans would like me very much if I went to their country waving an American flag, making people learn the English language, and protesting because of the government.  They would laugh in my face.  If we can not protect our borders then our country is not worth having!!!

Mexico has EVERYTHING it needs to be a top notch nation. except desire. These people either lack the know how or desire to do it. I sense a civil war is going to happen in Mexico soon. The people there need to find their "Neo"

becuase they think mexicans coming over the border is more important then gas prices. its sad but true.

it's not right because innocent people that are trying to get by are being sent away.  We should have mexico become one of our states.

Actually, there are some places in Mexico with large numbers of U.S. expatriates. If I remember correctly, in Mexicali, or in some other part of Baja California, there is a large community of retirees from the U.S. They go there, because the climate is pleasant and because the cost of living is low.

Maybe Mexico should sell oil to US and with the \nprofits re invest in the Mexican people. To create an environment where people wish to stay rather than escape. \nPerhaps one could seek out the reason why someone wants to leave their country. Images of this in my mind is of many many years with the border issue. Why does it look like now it is a  crisis when is has been a problem for 40 years.

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@\n\nLeave Mexico alone.  \n\nIt is man-made division anyway!  How would anyone like to be on the other side of the less fortunate.\n\nI think it is usually the ones who are not getting ahead who are really afraid of others taking their patch.\n\nThe successful and purposeful people (not necessary rich) don't worry this much about migrants coming to steal their bread, rice, pasta, etc. They know if they work hard enough, they'll have their share!\n\n_________________________________________\nIt is like the dog that sits put guarding his bowl for his master to top it up, eats whatever is given, not much of a choice; \n\nThese dogs are similar to people who don't travel (besides some genuine cases of dislike for travels), people who can't afford to travel because they are losers waiting around their little plot ready to jump at newcomers who move around for their existence.  \n\nAt least these migrants (I only support legal ones) are doing something positive about their lives - taking charge of their destiny and being proactive for their existence.  They are those who don't believe that someone else own them their living!)\n\n\nVersus the other dog who leaves his bowl knowing where to find food elsewhere, finds what he likes, having choices!  and then when these winners cast their eyes besides them, they see nothing but the same old loser of a 'bowls-guarding dogs'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Loser with mentality that because we are born on this patch, we have the rights to sit down and wait to be served??????\n\nThe quicker these mentality of birth rights are put in the right perspective, this world will have less losers.\n\nPeople who keep barking around their bowls are losers anyway.  So they can keep barking, nothing much will change.  \n\nThe hard workers win, it is nature's law, like it or not!\n\n------------------------------------------\n\n@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

People make that assumption because they are the largest group of incoming illegal immigrants.  They aren't the only people who come to this country and stay without legal citizenship, but Mexicans do come and stay illegally in larger numbers than immigrants from any other single country.

Because we wouldn't have the guts to ask and they definitely wouldn't pay. The Mexican government encourages it poor to come here by whatever means necessary to relieve it's responsibilities to it own people.

Mexico has a small, elite aristocracy, a small middle class and a massive working class.  \n\nOver the past several decades, the massive working class has grown to the point that it is upsetting the elite class...therefore they encourage their most downtrodden or their criminal element to migrate to America...They make them feel good by telling them they will always be "Mexican".  Bull............however...makes the deportees (illegals) feel loyalty to  them while getting the boot.  This works well in case Mexico needs to use the illegals as a means of retaking America.  AZTLAN...look it up.\n\nVoila'....they NOW keep a good balance of power.  Not too many poor, as  too many may incite rioting and government takeover.  Just enough to keep things rolling right along and to keep a good slave labor force.\n\nAND we get to take care of the people they are finished with.

Easy... can be summed up in two reasons\n\n #1.) Illegals form a significant flow of money to the Mexican economy (or politicans' pockets, same thing). \nThis is the thing that should dispel those lies that illegals are good for the USA, because if it were a good thing those illegals would at least keep all the money in the USA, but instead all those dollars are sent to Mexico.\n\n#2.) The more poor and dissatisfied that remain in Mexico, the more likely revolution or reform will take place as they eventually realize that they need to wake up and that their easy ticket is not easy anymore.\nI do not need to tell you that this would be bad for the current crop of corrupt imbeciles running Mexico.

Now, you are a Mexican person that I can try to understand.  However, I also feel as Hayleylov does about your "loving Mexico."  If you love Mexico, why did you leave it?  If you love Mexico, why don't you go back there and try to help that country?  Why don't you just admit that Mexico is an awful country because they don't love or help their people?  If they did, their people wouldn't be making tracks to the USA for a better life!  I would understand you more if you said that you love your people and your culture, but that you don't love the government of Mexico and that you want to do something to change things back home.  I like that you seem to understand how the American citizens feel about the marching in the streets of the illegal immigrants and the waving of their flag while doing so.  However, you also say, "I want our country to thrive here and some day we can have mexican people in the senate and we can help more of our people and become stronger but not by hating them it wont happen that way my people lets me nice to them."  That whole sentence is offensive to American citizens!  No, you should want your country to thrive in Mexico, not here, and you should fix the government of Mexico, not state how you want Mexicans in the senate [in the USA] - that is not the way into the heart of Americans. That still sounds like you are "taking over."  Stop that kind of talk if you want to be accepted in the USA!  I, also, am from two countries - I was born in the USA and now live in Canada, having immigrated (legally) to Canada with my family many years ago and I have legal citizenship of both countries. I also love both countries very much!  However, I did not come to Canada saying that we Americans are going to take over Canada and place our American people into positions in the Canadian government, etc.,  Yes, be nice to the American citizens and talk about how much you love the USA and your mother country of Mexico and how you hope to make things better for your people in Mexico one day.  That is a much better and more acceptable way to be speaking when you have come to another country.  Believe me!

To keep the mexicans from jumpin the border to the U.S

They wave that flag because they don't want to assimilate into America, they just want the money and stay Mexican.  They are the only so called immigrants to do this.  Send 'em packing.

The only reason some Americans think Mexicans are the only ones crossing our border is because that's the impression Mexico gives. \n\nEven when we announce our THOUGHTS about securing our border to keep Islamic terrorists out, Mexico comes unglued and yells out that no one is coming across except young, strong, hardworking Mexicans just looking for a better life.  Then accuse us of wanting to secure our border for racist reasons, that we're greedy and don't want to share our wealth with Mexico.\n\nSo listening to Mexico what's a person to think?
