Yeah, you tell 'em kid....

And for those who are so stupid to say things like "there is no middle class" why don't you actually study or read or something, you know when you are in school and college, your books are actually good for something else than holding up your bongs.....

My in laws and all their friends will be just stunned to find out that they "don't exist" (over 25% of Mexicans are considered to be "middle class" now, of course THEY don't come to the US except as tourists........)

.....and you know when we "Mexicans" are vacationing in Yucatan, Campeche, Quintana Roo, we also sleep on hammocks and run around in bare feet, eat raw fruit right from the trees, what the Hell does that have to do with the "middle class?" Do you have some weird stupid idea that to be legally allowed into the "middle class" one is required to sleep in a hot sticky bed, wear oxford loafers at the beach and eat only name-brand supermarket canned goods?

Why or why does this site always get into a fuss about undocumented workers, welfare and medical services. Mexico has a vigorous economy, a fairly decent education system (and getting better) phone and Internet connections and a young population that understands that English is the master language of business, science, engineering, entertainment. There are ESL programs all over the Republic. In Baja Norte, new hires need 80% English language skills. Mostly middle class and upper class here in this state. Been very deep in Mexico, loved it.

I have been to Mexico and have a pretty good understanding of the people. What does having knowledge of the Mexican social structure have to do with the illegal immigration problem. Who has given these people the right to disregard American law. Who has given these people a free pass to go to the front of the line with regard to gaining citizenship. I don't have to go to Mexico to obtain knowledge of their culture all I have to do is ride through my hometown and see the filth and mess they create. I am really pissed that illegals are allowed to trash my city, burden the school system, take needed money from the health care agencies. ...money they have no right too. If Americans were aware of the tremendous amount of money that is sent back to Mexico via Western Union in one week they would stoke out. These people are getting a free ride and taking from deserving Americans who have paid their dues as American citizens. I could give a rats *** less about conditions in Mexico ..we have abhor able conditions in some areas of the US that need to be addressed.

I have been traveling in Mexico too ... that's why I don't buy this crap about them all being poor and want to better themselves ... last time I checked there were plenty of jobs in Mexico ... their own constitution, if anyone would bother to read it, guarantees a fair wage, but, of course ... you are paid in pesos ... :) And as everybody also knows, a dollar is worth 10 times more in Mexico ... so it's the same old story ... greed .... they can make money and support a family in Mexico .. but they can make lots MORE in the United States ... even if they're paid less than an American worker ...

The half of Mexico is poor, almost the other half is middle class and the rest is rich, ignorants not only the polititians and the drug sellers are rich.
According to Forbes we have the third richest man of the world.
The richest of the world if U.S.A diden't existed.
We have about 3 billionaries.

I know a lot of rich people and is because thay have great bussines.

I live in Mexico.

Regardless, what does the economic state of the people entering have to do with breaking the law? I am with you, and the "supporters" seem to think that everyone living in Mexico is dirt poor and need to move or die. Not so. Moving your poor self to another country with still no money to your name will not suddenly make you rich or will it get you an income. Jobs are all over - heck, you could start your own. But what they are coming over here for is we have welfare, social security and medicare. None of which they have paid for, but would like to get.

Mexico is comparitively like the United States. I have spent a few weeks in Mexico, traveling, seeing the country side, and the ocean, meeting the people, and viewing their culture. That is why I respond to these questions. I think those who dont know what they are talking about need to shut up. I have a mexican BF and he makes a very good BF too. I gave him the chance to prove himself. Other people need to have the same consideration.

There is no middle class in Mexico, you have the rich that control everything then you have those that live from day to day wondering where they can get the money to make it to next week; have you been to the Yucatan? These people still live in adobe type homes, dirt floors, hammocks for beds, I don't classify that as middle class. You just sit in your beach house and enjoy the good life while there are people who don't even have shoes on their feet. The tourist beaches is not what I consider deep into Mexico.

I spent three weeks there in my former inlaws' home (in the state of Michoacan), not some resort. In a fairly poor village, but I saw people working, playing, throwing parties, etc. Nobody was starving and lying in the streets. People helped each other, adopted homeless children, and ran their own businesses. They planted and harvested crops, and most of them had electricity. I saw nothing there that convinced me they need to come here in droves to find a better life. I wish for a life like that, but here you have to be rich before you can have a simple, pleasant life. I've also been to some large cities there, and they look and function much like ours. People there who need help ask and generally receive it from their fellow citizens. It's a nice country. I am thoroughly convinced that what brings most illegals here is greed and laziness. You are expected to make your own way there, and no one permits people to act like some of them do when they come here. Imagine the outrage if they went about deflowering young virgins in their own towns and villages. They wouldn't live to tell about it.

I have. I also been to El Salvador, and Dominican Republic. I also speak Spanish. And no I'm not a Nazi. I just think that we can use all that money we wast on Israel to do other things like secure our border. I have nothing against illegal immigrants who are already here. Just that our country is not doing anything better to secure our border. I love immigrants. They are Hard working people. And guess what. Most of my buddies in Iraq who are in the army and marines are Hispanic. And their parents are illegals.
