They do no want to stop it, illegal immigration is their way of handling their unemployment.

Mex is all about payoffs and Calderon maintains that premise. The only thing that will ever get Mex to even consider reigning in their nationals is a huge industrial influx that trumps any and all cash sent to Mex by their citizenry embedded here.

Or, IOW, blackmail.

We need consider neither option and simply enforce our immigration laws and seal our border. But our current politicians are greedy opportunists with payoffs in mind and seem unlikely to consider the country’s well being above their own.

Maybe Mexico should show it’s good faith by relaxing, or not enforcing, its own strict immigration laws, the exact thing they are demanding of us. Until they are willing to do that, they should just STFU.

If we build the fence and stop the illegals then he'll actually have to do something to fix Mexico's problems (or at least talk about it).

As things stand today, he doesn't need to do anything. The US is the safety valve on the Mexican pressure cooker.

We welcome a realistic solution from Calderon that includes creating jobs in Mexico so its citizens will want to stay put.

bttt!
