It's simpler than that.

The government of Mexico is engaged in the ethnic cleansing of its Amerindians.

Mexico is a two-tiered society. One tier consists of the descendants of the European Spanish and the other the indigenous peoples, the Amerindians.

There is no question in the minds of the European Spanish that they are superior to the native Amerindians and that is racism, pure and simple.

Mexico is a two-tiered society. One tier consists of the descendants of the European Spanish and the other the indigenous peoples, the Amerindians.

So sending their peasants across the border is a form of ethnic cleansing. I knew it was kind of a pressure valve the corrupt Mexican government takes advantage of but I hadn't really thought of it in terms of the Spaniards getting rid of the "surplus population" of American Indians. I think Mexico is a volcano about to erupt and things are going to be worse than anyone can imagine.
