First it not Russia but Soviet Union. Second, why we want Mexicans? You can have them...trip in raft to far. We have enough problem with Chinese. You want open border? Enjoy benefits.

My point was, and I am sure you understood but decided to avoid, is if Russia is doing so well in relationship to the U.S., why is the world still rushing here instead of there?

"Second, why we want Mexicans?"
We don't want the Mexicans either (Look at the mess California is in because of Illegal immigration).
The problem is that the Republican Politicians are afraid of cracking down on Illegal Immigration because the US media will call them "Racists".
But the issue is not "Race" the issue is CITIZENSHIP.
Anyway, the Republicans need to offset the growth of the Mexican population (Who vote Democratic) by bringing in Ukrainians and Belarusians, who vote 80% Republican in US elections.
You don't mind if we allow 20 million Ukrainians and Belarusians to immigrate to US do you???
