I thought all mexicans were poor and wanted to escape to the U.S? How can both be true?

...Ahhh, you've figured it out !!!! you see, all those Mexicans who have crossed into the US have secretally been bringing back all our money to this guy... they have brought so much back that by next Christmas, we won't have any money left to buy Christmas gifts... it's getting scary out there...

It's a bit like America. The richest men are from there, but have you ever been to a slum there? That's what's known as the gap between rich and poor. The haves and have-not

What the government doesn't give back to the people makes them less.......likewise, what the US gives to illegals (as far as free medicare for having babies here,) makes them more.
I guess the old adage goes, by some patriot that "let us not do for ourselves, let us do for our country" applies in this case, like it did the US.
(Sidenote) the mexican president criticizes the US for adapting a fence to keep the illegals out of the US. How ironic......

You have A LOT of learning to do. Just because some are, doesn't mean that all are. Look at people in the US and other countries...Not every body is rich, some have lots of money, some have a little and some have none.

This is the misconception you people in the west have,generalizing issues.The fact that there is hunger in one part of Africa does not mean the whole of Africa is hungry.Your press has let you down in many issues and the fact that most of the people from the west want to read what is bad only.

It seems Mr. Slim has something on the ball to accumulate such wealth.
