The illegal alien who come north used to be regarded as sellouts or deserters in Mexican society. Now, they're heroes praised by Mexican President Vicente Fox for the money they inject into that faltering economy. 'Mexico is a failing society that stays afloat by exporting human capital. If you shut that border down, in five years you'd have a revolution, because Mexico can't meet the aspirations of its own people.'"

You are correct. Mexico accomplishes several things by exporting their people north to us.
* they get rid of uneducated and unskilled workers that they don't have to support
* those same workers send back Billions of dollars back into their economy
* fewer people in their own country makes it easier to manage their people
There is no reason why a country as rich in natural resources like Mexico can't have a good economy and provide good paying jobs for their people. Another example of an oil rich country where a handful of people control the oil wealth. The Mid East countries do this and their poor people are suckered into becoming terrorists. Thank God Mexicans are Catholic and not Muslims, otherwise they'd be blowing themselves up in our country. Hey, look on the bright side!

Angela ... if 80% of the illegal aliens keep all their money in the States, they must be earning one hell of a lot, taking into account that they've already sent over 11 billion to Mexico during the first six months of this year ... in other words, 20% of the illegals can afford to part with 11 billion in six months .... wow .... not bad going l...

Well you are right, they do sent SOME money back to their families...
but it's a little bit compared to what they buy and consume in the United States...
If they earn 20 dollars, they probably send 1 dollar to their homes...
No offense, but President Fox isn't even Prez anymore...
Thanks to him, crime was decreased and the economy was rising by a little... it's passed presidents and independence wars that f***** up the nation.....
It's going up though... I've heard many people look for jobs there than here in the US..

Guest Workers Aren't Cheap; They're Expensive President Bush entered the White House in 2001 hoping he would be known in history books as the education president who improved public school standards with "No child left behind." It now looks like his legacy will really be "No illegal alien left behind." As President Bush's poll numbers drop even among his base, the question most frequently asked by angry Republicans is, why, oh why, is Bush so stubbornly rejecting the advice of his supporters even though that advice is consistent with the thunderous message from public opinion surveys?

Another typical ignorant racist gringo LIE, pretty much as usual. Do you racist Klan members NEVER stop the LIES?
Today, there is one Mexican returning to Mexico for every three crossing illegally. That was one in 10 just 15 years ago! The Mexican GDP is growing at just over 5.4% this year. (About 3 X that of the USA!)
Mexico has a more honest, more vibrant and more open democracy than even in the US as shown by our recent national elections. The automobiles made in Mexican plants, especially Mercedes, Chrysler and Volkswagen are head and shoulders in quality over the crap produced by lazy, whining, drug-taking gringo workers in the US. In fact the quality of the E-series Mercedes produced in Mexico has a higher quality rating than the same car produced in GERMANY!
Mexico is a FAILING society? Which country has the higher rate of domestic violence? child abuse? murder? rape? race related violence? gang related crime?
Answer: THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!
Which of the two countries produces 80% of the world's pornography? has 80% of the world's hard drug users? murders 3,000,000 unborn children every year?
Answer: THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!
"Mexico can't meet the aspirations of its own people?" Is that what you actually wrote you ignorant racist gringa? Let me carefully explain the vital difference between Americans and Mexicans, my dear stupid bimbo.....
Down here we actually HAVE aspirations!

B.S. The government has failed, I think the people know how to take care of themselves. I don't know what the future holds for Mexico, but chances are it'll be built the old fashioned way, by the citizens.
They say NAFTA has hurt Mexico, maybe it should be abolished.

Pathetic.
And he gives them brochures on how to come across, and I understand that they counsel on how to apply for OUR government benefits, too.
I always thought Mexico was a proud country, but on this issue, it sure doesn't seem like it.
Angela, tell that to Fox. He has it at the 2d largest foreign source of foreign income only after oil.
