While not all illegals are Mexican, a vast marjority in fact are due to the closeness of the border. Do you think that the U.S should send Mexico a bill for costs to provide citizen's health care and other assistance? Mexico does not want "closed borders." However, they cannot have the best of both worlds. Why should U.S. citizens continue to pay for these services when many cannot even afford to pay health care premiums for themselves and families?

No I wouldn't want to run for president because I am honest and do not have hidden agendas.

Yo it's me: Yes! I have been in 2 accidents in the past 4 years in which I was struck by an illegal alien with no auto insurance. Something has to be done.

It is not up to Mexico to pay for their citizens leaving Mexico--
-- it is up to the USA to prevent illegals to come into the country and to stop the ridiculous law ,making all Babies born here automatically USA citizens.

I can understand your point of view about illegals, but really think about it seriously Mexicans are not the only illegals here in the United States.....Just because they are closer to the border and closer to us they are blame for alot of our mistakes too....We are just a country that has a big heart and willing to help anyone to a point...but alot of them take advantage of us without looking back...HUH!!! Some of these illegalls come to the United States because they can't make it in Mexico alot of the little countries there are very poor that they have to look else where for there next meal/work.......They are hard workers when they come here because they take the jobs none of us here want to do or get paid at a very low paying job...I know something needs to be done but WHAT!! We need more ideas, support from both Mexico and the United States to do something to help each other out not just pointing the finger at each other.....

kestril68 is exactly right!!! "-- it is up to the USA to prevent illegals to come into the country and to stop the ridiculous law ,making all Babies born here automatically USA citizens."
Try going to another country and disobeying their immigration laws. You'll soon find out how easily enforced they are!!!
More "blame Mexico" garbage...
This is some new BS misinformation campaign to direct the blame away from the criminals in "our" government where it belongs and to make people against illegal immigration and amnesty look stupid.
100% of the blame goes to "our" corrupt, criminal, treasonous government that refuses to defend our borders or make any attempt to enforce our immigration laws. You let them spread this garbage and blame Mexico for the USA not being defended against foreign invasion and you lose!!! They will continue allowing this invasion. They will grant amnesty to all illegals... and laugh while the American people blame Mexico!!!
Wake up people!!!

Wish it were that simple. There HAVE been people who have this very thing and the Mexican Government ignores them. They could care less about our plight. Which is WHY we have to show them the illegal aliens are not wanted and will be sent back. It is disgusting I know.

Why not just take away their foreign aid. Along with alomst every other country's foreign aid. Very little of it helps the people its supposed to. Most ends up in the hands of beurocrats.
But if you want to bill them for that then we can bill a lot of countries for a lot of things. Start with Europe. Bill them for getting their butts saved from WW1 and 2. Bill them for rebuilding their countries after they blew them up. Bill them for all our military bases scattered everywhere so they don't blow themselves up again. The list is endless in this world for billing other countries.

I agree that Mexico should get the bill for all the problems and issues that illegals cause in the US! But I wouldn't count on them paying it!! They would just call us racists, like they do every time we stand up against illegal immigration!

Mr. Bush would never think of holding the Mexican government accountable for ANYTHING. He only thinks legal Americans should pay for it. What a guy, what a guy?

I like that idea. And sue Mexico (or where ever they are from) every time one of their people gets in a car wreck here and doesn't have auto insurance.

What makes you think it would ever get paid?
We have "lent" billions and billions of dollars to Mexica and they have never made any attempt to re-pay us, that is unless you consider them sending the dreds of their soceity over the border into our country "repayment"

Yup, I'm sure Mexico will be more than happy to pay up.
