Illegal aliens from Mexico?

Question

Am I the only one that thinks illegal aliens from Mexico are getting exploited by Mexico, and the US once they sneak across the border?

From the stand point that illegal aliens from Mexico think there salvation in life is to be found here in the states without holding the Mexican government responsible for there futures. So they get abandoned by Mexico only to come to the US with the constant threat of deportation, and getting paid substandard wages. Sounds like double exploitation to me!

Answer 1

NO, you are not....

illegal aliens from Mexico, become slaves for the rich ruling class in Mexico,

when they illegally enter the USA,

they become criminals in the USA,

then they proceed to steal from the USA,

they send stolen money to relatives in Mexico...

their relatives spend the money...

the money ends up in the hands of the rich ruling class slave masters in Mexico....

A cycle has begun, the cycle continues, and repeats, the scope of the crime increases.

IF the slaves ever wise up and wake up, the corrupt Mexican government might be in trouble... it would be nice to see it happen today.

Answer 2

Yes, they are. Mexico loves the fact that they come to this country and doesn't care that it may be illegal. I have read recently that 20 billion dollars ANNUALLY goes back to Mexico from illegal aliens working in the US. That is more income than Mexico receives from tourism. For all of this added income these folk bring back to Mexico, they receive nothing from the government. No health care, substandard living conditions and a government that is doing little to improve things for them so they don't have to risk their lives coming to the US for work. If Mexico wanted to prevent the large numbers of people coming across the border, they would be more successful at it than we have been.

The US exploits them by not enforcing laws on the books therefore allowing corporations to employ these people for low wages, no health care and sometimes terrible working conditions. The two countries work together to keep this going since they are both benefiting and I don't think that anything is going to happen to fix this situation until the owners, managers and anyone involved in employing or renting to the people are arrested and charged with the laws currently on the books. No new laws are needed, no border to keep them out is required. If they can't find work or housing, they will not come across the border.

Answer 3

I do not think Mexico is exploiting illegals. However, Mexico is completely disinterested in stemming the tide either. Mexico benifits twofold from illegal immigration.

1) Major amounts of capital are infused into the Mexican economy by illegals sending money home.

2) Mexico has runaway poverty and illegals represent less of a burden on the Mexican system since they are out of the country. This also plays into the first assertion because they are helping to support the poorer masses in Mexico.

I do believe that illegals are being exploited by companies in the US as a source of cheap labor.

Answer 4

No, both Country's benefit by than underground agreement. Mexico of course receives badly needed dollar bills and America gets cheap labor so the cost of living does not rise. There is a number of mechanisms in the Country by which the immigrates are being taken advantage of in a serious fashion. For example, many illegal emigrants work on the same farms and ranch every year for the same owners but are paid above the Mexican economy but significantly below the American minimum wage. Sons follow fathers and work at the same ranch generation after generation.
Now most of the right wingers screaming and yelling at us know very will that they are not going to change anything in any significant way. But, the Republicans have to get American minds and hearts out of Iraq if they hope to win the elections in Nov. and 2008.
So, you have your finger right on the cracked an bleeding integrity of the other side......... not all.... but many.

Answer 5

Illegal aliens send U.S. money back to Mexico all the time, that's how Mexico exploits them. it's almost like remote welfare. Sure the illegal worked for it (well some of them at least), but they broke U.S. law to make that money and it's used to prop up the crappy Mexican system.

We know that many illegals are exploited by American businesses as cheap labor so the answer is NO, you are not the only one who thinks both Mexico and the U.S. are exploiting illegals.

Answer 6

I used to feel that way until I got more info. Last I heard they get an average of $10 per hour of American money while women, teens, and other low income workers get the substandard and much lower minimum wage. Is that fair? They get our SSI, Medi-Cal, free health clinics, subsidized housing, etc while we are denied, plus higher wages than the other poor in this country. Sorry if I no longer feel all the poor are in the same boat. They don't treat whites as peers in this issue, so why should we?

Answer 7

Well, tell all the republicans to send them back & stop hiring them to do all their grunt work...
As far as Mexico exploiting them, where do you think most of their money goes?? Back to Mexico, where their relatives can live like kings on what they make here!

Answer 8

yep, cheep almost slave labor up here, then sending the money back to Mexico, its one of Mexico's top sources of money.

all i really know is if this doesn't stop there will be many new faces in congress. none of the two major parties want to do anything about this, I am starting to think a 3ed party option might be worth it.

Answer 9

No you are not, Mexico i susing them to clean house of people they cannot or will not care for or educate or employ.
The United States Businmesses are using them for cheap labour, and for evey million we allow in another 11 million baby makers are ready to send us more.
It
s time ot put a stop to it. Mexico has too many laws restricting home and land owership, and restrict free interprise.(americans cannot own land in mexico).
I would remove the law giving immedate citizenship to children not born to american citizens. The law was not meant for people to cross the border for immedate citizenship.
II would remove illegals from America and force Mexico to keep their citizens there.
I would enact laws in which if countries like Mexico denied property rights to americans than so would we to mexicans.
I would remove us from the free trade agreements and slave labour would no longer kill American businesses.
I would make and require english be the natiponal language, and the one spoken and taught in schools and colleges. People in miami who cannot speak spainish are denied jobs, this is wrong and all business should be conducted in english.
I would deny immigrants to illegals free medical care and food cards. How in the hell can we owe an illegal a food card amounting to more than most americans spend on food. I would deny illegals free dentian care. why should the taxpayers send out free dental vans when our own go lalcking due to cost of dential work.

Answer 10

i might wager approximately ninety% of all illegals are from Mexico. reason is obtrusive, for Asiatic or African or ecu illegals this is ninety% greater complicated to get to U.S. having to pass by making use of planes or ships..at the same time as Mexicans can basically walk or scoot, or curler skate around the border-because of the fact of feeble border between U.S. & Mexico/greaseland.
