As far as Mexico goes, which is our hands-down worst offender on illegal immigration, I don't know if they'll welcome their people home, or not.
I just have this question: OK, if I had 10 million in 'cheap labor', and I wanted to see hospitals, schools, and roads in my country, I think we could get the job done, si? So, what exactly is Mexico's catastrophic malfunction that they don't have enough schools and roads and hospitals, and sewage lines and water pipes and street lights and all the other stuff they call 'infrastructure'?
If every person in Mexico donated 10 pesos, that's about a buck, that'd be 110 million dollars. Working on your 'cheap labor' scale, do you think you could build a couple plain-old single-story hospitals with that? I believe so, especially if you went with good ol' pre-fa buildings, I think you could probably build about 30 or 40 hospitals that way, well clinics at any rate. Why aren't the people OF Mexico investing IN Mexico and making it all happen, there?
By encouraging people to move back home, and fix their own country, it's a win-win, helps the people IN their country, helps america, too. A prosperous, self-supporting Mexico is a happy and not-impossible prospect. Mexico's FAR from hopeless, though they might pretend, and seeing as how THIS country still GIVES that country like 7 billion each year, maybe it's time to insist that the monies be used ONLY to do like hospital projects etc. Let's see, 7 billion divided by 10 million equals 700 hospitals.
Since there's still mexican citizens trying to get medical care in the United States, it's safe to assume that the monies are NOT being spent on medical care facilities. So, where's all this magic aid money going to, who's getting it, what's it being spent on?
This is where it gets ugly, where it gets into public accountability, and calling shaky policies into question while we're at it. Our country is 8.4 trillion dollars in debt, probably 8.5 trillion by now.
I think if ANY aid money is going to be spent ANYwhere, there needs to be open reports on it to the public.
Furthermore, thanks to 'sanctuary' etc., some 120 BILLION dollars flows south to Mexico annually through the actions of the mexican people. That's laudable in one sense, but it also begs the question of why Mexico is not developing its' OWN industries, and employing its' own people. Mexico has farmland, Mexico has minerals, Mexico has many hands to make light work. What Mexico apparently lacks, though, is the collective will to 'make it so'. I don't believe that will will ever manifest itself until they decide to unify and do for themselves IN their own country. Ending 'sanctuary' and building the border fence will help speed that whole business along...

Some won't considering there are a lot of gang members and criminals, but for the most part they will bring back some knowledge and pricey possessions to their economy.
