Why can't the US export its criminals to Mexico and other countries that allow its criminals to go to the USA?

Because it will bring products more cheaply from Mexico to the US.\n\nWe are going to end up outsourcing and getting stuff from elsewhere anyway.  Anyone who that they can reverse this or stop it is just naive or uneducated.  So you have to ask yourself, would you rather import from our neighbors or Asia?

It would open up trade. there would probably be a lot more drug smuggling as well at first but opening the boarders, means opening the doors of communication as well. So the north American and south American governments would have to work together for a change to get rid of those elements. Also we would become more profitable as a nation, because it wouldn't be illegal to work here, so pay would go up for immigrants seeking work here, they in turn send or bring money home building their economy, and that country builds schools and factories, with better paying jobs for their citizens, turning them into CONSUMERS...Who in turn vacation in America, and buy American goods and products, making us an exporter not just an importer...meaning small time shops in America can now sell goods across both continents openly and become big time shops....See how it trickles down. Like you said Europe has done it and been successful.

'Coyotes' are just human traffickers violating the US/Mexico border that haven't been sentenced to 28 consecutive life sentences in their home country of mexico, yet. Why, you ask? Because the US hasn't imposed enough trade sanctions on Mexico yet to convince them to start enforcing their own laws. \nThey're not really bad people, they just need to stay completely OUT of america, and all will be well...

I understand the point you are making with this question, even if most who answered you did not.  You're saying, "Why is the USA considered so 'bad' by everyone for wanting to defend our borders and keep illegal immigrants out, when every other country in the world defends their borders and nothing seems to be said about it?"  In fact, most of the other countries of the world are extremely harsh to illegal immigrants - often to the point of shooting to kill as they find them.  Mexico, for one, is far stricter on their southern border than the USA is and if you are found in that country illegally you will be subject to terrible things if you weren't shot to death, including imprisonment, possibly raping, beating, theft and bribery, etc.  Yet, even Mexico feels it has a right to tell the USA to let Mexicans come into the USA illegally or however they want to!  Give me a break!  I agree with Diaboyos' answer here, too.

because the USA wont allow it

No, because there's laws against a criminal earning money from their crimes.  If one writes a book and sells it, the money goes to the vitims of his crimes, and the rest to victims advocacy groups.

We have to secure both of our borders and do a better job with human intelligence in both Canada and Mexico. It isn't enough to improve our control of access -- some will invariably get through. We also have to know who is trying and for what purpose. For that, we need more effective human intelligence.

The problem with Mexico is that much of the country doesnt have much of an export/import like US and Europe do to provide the country with an annual gross income and many of the jobs in Mexico are farming and if you're lucky to work in places that are major tourist attractions like Puerto Villarta Cancun and Acapulco or even Cabo San Lucas. Mexico only has the tourist industry barely getting them out of poverty, but it's the laws that are keeping much of the country in poverty this explains why you see so many mexican nationals illegally crossing into the United States.

Yes they do. Many people say it's because Americans won't do them. It's not that Americans won't do them, it's the companies they won't pay the money for the people to work so the CEO's and other big wigs within the company can put more dollars in their pockets. Illegals will do it because it's still twice what they would get back in Mexico.

Mexico needs the borders open so the can being drugs in the the US, and get all the money Mexican send back to Mexico.

I doubt it. Investment in Mexico by US citizens is strictly limited. Mexico dose not want immigration from the US and has resisted any measures to affect the drug trade significantly.  La mordida still rules in Mexico. In fact, native Mexicans look down on their American Mexicans cousins. Ironic isn't it.

Because that is the only thing they like to throw in our face. They all need to go back to mexico. If they do not support law abiding Americans, they can join their illegal friends on the busses when we deport them all.

A certain quality and safety standard has to be maintained for goods to be imported in the US.  Other countries are probably nor meeting that criteria yet.  There are large quantity of goods being imported from China, so your statement is not entirely true either.

We aren't honest about the problem.  For the most part, this is a national security issue having to do with mexico.  Quite literally, mexico has created a black market industry that rivals oil exportation as its main source of revenue.  This has horrible consequences for both us and mexico.  Drugs have a direct effect on our population but the money sent back to mexico creates a situation where the most heinously evil people have tons of power.  We are seeing the result right now as the mexican government is only a few short steps from being overthrown and being replaced with a communist/totalitarian government fueled by drug money.  Mexico has become the type of place where you are out dancing at a club, minding your own business when all of a sudden a group of gunmen burst in and toss a bunch of severed heads on the stage as a warning to people.\n\nSolving this is quite direct.  Shut down the border and seal it tight.  The methamphetamines issue is even simpler to solve.  Get rid of certain OTC cold medications and it becomes very difficult to manufacture them.

you are mistaken.There are basically two types of criminals.\na felon is anybody who committed and was convicted of a crime with a penalty of more than one year in jail. A misdemeanor is  a crime punishable by less than one year in prison.\nThe determining factor is the exact words of the law that make the act a crime. entering a country illegally is probably punishable by more than one year in jail so it is a felony. a person if NOT a felon until he has been convicted. until then he is just a suspect or defendant. The authorities usually do not try an illegal migrant worker on these felony charges but just send them back home. The sherriff of Maricopa County in Arizona wants to arrest them and try them and put them in jail. This would be as good as a job to most and like a country club vacation to them after living in Mexicao. So better to send them back and let Mexico support them.\n\n Civil trespass is  merely a TORT, not a crime( usually) The typical state law allows a landowner or person entitled to possession, like a tenant, to sue another for the tort of tresspass. it is not punishable by any jail time . The person who is accused and sued and adjudged liable for this tort is called a tortfeasor, not a criminal.  There are no civil crimes per se, but some do cross the line, such as civil harrasment and are sort of a crime and sort of a tort.

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.
