    Mexico is just a nickel away

    Talk about why illegal Mexicans have no loyalty to America---
    http://news.newamericamedia.org/news/vi ... 2c1ded617b

    >snip<" the fact that so many legal immigrants turned out at the protests reflects the new profile of millions of U.S. Hispanics. Unlike what happened decades ago, today's immigrants are much closer to their home countries,largely thanks to dramatically lower travel and communications costs. Millions of immigrants have become “transnational citizens.”

    Consider: Only a decade ago, most Latin American immigrants could only afford calling home once a month. Today, thanks to cheaper telephone rates – you can buy a $5 telephone card at any gas station and make calls to Mexico for more than seven hours – many call their loved ones in Latin America several times a day.

    A decade ago, most Latin American migrants got their news about their home countries from the “foreign briefs” in Spanish-language media. Today, thanks to 500-channel cable television systems, millions of Latin American immigrants watch their native countries' nightly news shows live in their living rooms. Many of the estimated 14 million U.S. Hispanics who use the Internet read their native countries' newspapers online, rather than U.S. newspapers. Most U.S. newspapers have so little news about Latin America that it could hardly be any other way. Thanks to cheaper air fares, millions of immigrants can visit home much more often than their predecessors."

    etc etc etc---and that, in a nutshell, is WHY it's so easy for them not to give a rat's derriere about America. Too easy to maintain ties with the home country. Earn your money here, send it back there. Take advantage of America but love Mexico. You would think that some of them would actually learn to like us. But, forget that thought, they'd rather whine and throw tantrums about how horrible and racist we are to them. The phone lines to Mexico must be burning up with millions of illegals complaining how terrible we treat them, while in the next sentence, they are asking their buddies to come and jump the fence too.
