Mexicans all line up outside of home depot to get work. Perhaps if people (probably democraps) stopped hiring them they would cut it out.

MEXICO CITY--In the last decade, an estimated half million Americans moved permanently to Mexico, making the United States' southern neighbor the country with the most U.S. expatriates in the world.

Not since the conclusion of the American Civil War -- when thousands of Southerners emigrated to Mexico -- have so many Americans moved to Mexico.

"A generation ago, older Americans would move to San Miguel, or Lake Chapala, or Mexico City," says Joann Andrews, who has lived in Merida, a large city on the Yucatan peninsula, since the 1950s. "But now, there are Americans setting down roots throughout the entire country. Americans have finally discovered the beauty of their most populous neighbor."

Officials at the American embassy estimate that there are "officially" more than 600,000 American citizens living permanently in Mexico, but concede the actual number is closer to 800,000. Treasury Department officials in Washington estimate that the number of Treasury checks -- Social Security, Veteran Administrations, tax refunds -- sent to Mexico is "in the ballpark of 750,000."

In Baja California, an estimated 100,000 Americans have created the first North American land rush of the 21st century. In the Yucatan peninsula, there are more Americans retirees than in some cities in southern Florida.

"When I first moved to Mexico, my family and friends thought I was nuts," says Skip Connors, a Vietnam veteran who has lived in Mexico since the 1990s. "But the quality of life I enjoy here, the friendships I have made and the peace of mind that I have living where people treat each other with respect and decency has saved me."

For decades, most Americans living in Mexico were retirees. But something of greater consequence than American-style retirement communities is taking shape. Mexico is confronting the cultural and socioeconomic impact of "Generation Gringo": young, working-age American migrants who are starting families

Is this the type of assimilation American society wants from foreign nationals who are immigrating to America?
Is this the future characteristics of many immigrants to America?
Is this the future of the makeup of American society due to the overwhelming influences of foreign immigrants to America?
Is this type of behavior acceptable within YOUR community?
What are YOU going to do to change this?

My guess is that very few of the people pushing making ENGLISH as the official language, do so because they dont know any other languages and do not have an interest in learning them.

Why do they not immigrate legally?

2007-04-14 18:55:28 · 8 answers · asked by Anonymous

shouldn't we waive the fees for all those who are applying for legal immigration??

I have foreign coworkers who are paying between $4000 and $6000 out of their pockets for lawyer fees for green cards as postdoc scientists - illegals think that $3500 is too much!!
I say we should just let all those who are seeking legal status come in for free and hike up the fees on the illegals who want to cut in line!
