Is the Us economy strong enough to support 50 million more Mexicans...?

Question

I mean the situation in Mexico is horrible... 300 years of Spanish influence that raped the economy... filth everywhere... lack of education and other debilitating economic factors... If We legalize immigration there will be a flood of people.... Kiss Social Security good-bye [we might end up having to do that anyway because of the immense strain that all those white people place on our governmental aid programs]... Raising minimum wage and Chicago's controversial 'Big Box' ordinance and their ilk... will never be issues again... Why...? Because there will be so many people here who be willing to work for sub 'cost of living wages' that it will be pathetic....

We are trillions of dollars in debt and we can afford 50 million more mouths to feed...?

Answer 2

Mexico's largest source of cash ( second largest is the Oil they sell to the USA ) is the money sent back to family in Mexico by illegal immigrants in the United States.
Without these funds from the illegal immigrants and the safety
valve the US provides by taking all these otherwise unemployed workers out of Mexico, Mexico would collapse both economically and politically as a natiion which is barely holding itself together now.

Answer 3

No, though a good answer would be to absorb Mexico and get rid of the treaty that keeps us from gaining new territory. If we were the controlling government down there, not only would it open up new economic areas, but it would keep most of the population down there. I know I would be more willing to move down there if we were in control!

Answer 4

No we can NOT support any more illegal or legal aliens from Mexico - we need to help fellow Americans before we give any more of America away!@

Answer 5

Invade mexico, and take their land, so the people from mexico
would be US citizens, and they wont have to leave their
homes, and the US won't have to deal anymore with the
"illigal immigrants", coz there wont be any.

Answer 6

Yes it is, but should we?? No. Most are NOT against immigration, they are against ILLEGAL immigration. Especially in the time of war. Wake up America before someone ELSE wakes you!

Answer 9
