institute a high tariff on all money transfers to Mexico,

No decent people are going to agree to place a "tariff" on money transfers from people trying help their impoverished relatives in other countries.

Being kind I'll say half of that money is paid under the table. Probably more . Is it decent that these people escape taxation while sucking dry our schools and hospitals?

They're paying taxes on everything they buy and every commercial transaction just like everyone else, and you don't know what's under the table and what's not.

Plenty of natural born citizens work under the table for that matter.
