Our policy should be to help Mexico develop its own people and resources.

That's exactly what George W. Bush did when he signed the Partnership for Prosperity Agreement (with Mexico) in 2001.

As a result, we're sending billions of US taxpayer dollars south of the border.

Guess what?

The Mexicans still don't want to live in Mexico. They'd rather come here so they can take advantage of the social infrastructure here in the USA.

Got any other bright ideas?

I guess I should have said help Mexico without hurting us. It is to our advantage to keep people in their own country except for special circumstances.

Sending our jobs south was stupid. We cannot repeat that mistake. We did not help Mexico to develop its own resources and peoples. Had we done so, we could be more equal trading partners with them.
