No they aren't truly needy, their just whiners!

Illegal aliens always try to throw in American History or the Iraq war when it come to spending money, so they don't look so bad.

Ah yes, Mexico, the "neediest" country in the world...
For some strange reason, I can't seem to find some official, objective way of measuring a country's "neediness"--but you clearly must have one, so I'll see if I can figure it out...
I tried Google and ended up here (http://healthshoponline.co.za/create_account.php?osCsid=1870c2d8b61711c35ec09e9ef7017cff ). I looked around for the neediness quotient but, alas, I couldn't find it and I think I ended up buying 8 tons of pelargonium syrup. I can be so dumb sometimes.
So anyway, I figured you must be talking about the amount of aid the United States gives the country. Seems like a good measure.
... Hmm, strange. Looks like Iraq gets the most--eighteen and a half billion dollars. The next closest country, Israel, only gets two and a half billion. Those damn needy Jews. There must be something wrong with this data, because Mexico is missing from the list of the 15 countries recieving the most U.S. foreign aid. Maybe we just won't give them any money because they're too damn needy?
So, Mexico gets an average of about 30 million dollars per year. If you would like an idea of how much this really is, consider that in 2003 the federal government lost 25 billion dollars...or almost 100 times as much as Mexico's foreign aid. Woops, it's gone. Don't know how, but it's just not here anymore. Meh, these things happen. Sometimes I can't find my shoes for days. It's totally understandable.
Or how about over three times as much spent on unused plane tickets the Pentagon just couldn't get around to refunding. No time. Countries to invade, people to bomb--there's a war on, you know.
Here's some more... The 2006 federal budget included an expenditure of almost twice what Mexico recieves so that Iowa can have a rain forest museum. So I guess the real question is:
Why has Iowa now become the neediest country in the world surpassing even MEXICO AND CHAD?
And, by the way, what did Chad ever do to you?

First where did you get that Mexico is needy and two =]--* Mexico is NOT LAZY because if they were their would be no fruit,houses,streets etc. So before you open your BIG ANNOYING MOUTH why don't you open your eyes and look around. Who are the people building everything? Mainly Mexicans right? And if your still not satisfied why don't you get YOUR LAZY A*S UP and try to build a house. And when you do then you can say anything you want.

Mexico has a growing economy: new business, increased tourism, real estate,construction,thousands of new jobs. I find no data to back up your statement. It appears that Mexico bashing on this site has become a sport.

Considering we are spending about 3 billion a day on the Iraq war, I would beg to differ!

All your questions are about illegal immigrants. Why are you so hateful to people less fortunate than you. I think you are either:
1. Trailer park trash with a chip on her shoulder.
2. Ex-Girlfriend of a hispanic man.
3. Just plain hateful.
