This is not a personal view, but looking at the responses posted to this question i can tell that most of you have never been beyond your hometown counties/towns/states...the question posed does not even state a criteria of comparison...when the asking party says 'worst' what are they referring to are you asking about economy, infrastructure, crime rates...? Anyway, if you take the time to research a little bit beyond cnn, fox and what you class teacher and mates tell you, you would discover that this world is alot bigger than the US alone and theres alot of good out there. Please do not take this as an offensive statement but do not reflect your ignorance especially on a place such as the web, this world may be too big for you...

Someone already posted the list. Kudos to them.
One side thought, if we allow disruption to continue by illegal immigrants on the current level and don't take measures to roll back the carnage causing influx, we may inadvertently, kill the American Goose that has laid us all so many golden eggs.

What will be there for the American children or any law abiding, legal immigrants to have then?

Not much.

Mexico has riches most countries only dream of. Their problem is corruption, poor education, and a government that wants someone else to scratch their but for them.

Don't know and, sorry but, I don't care. We have to worry about US citizens first. We can't take care of the whole world.

Just because Mexico is crap doesn't give them the right to invade our country, sponge off the taxpayer, destroy our economy (and our schools & healthcare) and steal jobs & identities from citizens. Deport all ILLEGAL alien criminals NOW!

Most of South America (except Brazil & Venezuela).
Many countries in Asia!

el thugo gangstero...You are in wrong...we do not get more "immigration" due to our close proximity to Mexico...we get more ILLEGAL ALIENS...
Immigrants enter a country LEGALLY.
Immigration #s are not set or limited based on the "distance" from the country the immigrant is moving to.

plenty. But Mexico is our neighbor which means we obviously get more immigration from them than say, Nigeria.
