Thread: A perfect way to stop undocumented immigration into the U. S

Don't you think that in order to stop ALL undocumented immigration into the U. S. from third world countries like Mexico, El Salvador, Guatemala, etc, etc their countries would first need to have an economy as good as ours??

Most of the undocumented immigrats come to work. There sure is a number that came for other reasons, but they mainly came to work. Perhaps if their homeland gave them work, they would not need to come here.

Juang, I couldn't agree with you more. Mexico, for example, is the 8th wealthiest nation in the world. Why isn't their economy not as good as ours? Is it because those people would rather desert their homeland than stand up and fight for it? Is it because they find it easier to sneak into the US illegally and take our jobs and all their other so-called entitlements rather than try to make a real difference at home for themselves and their loved ones?

All illegal aliens should return to their homelands and demand of their government what they demand of ours.

Make the illegal alien fit the law not the law fit the illegal alien.

Welcome juang!

It is not the American citizens' fault that that economies are poor in Mexico, Guatemala, etc. Those people need to take up their woes with their own respective governments, not ours. Ultimately, the US will be another third world country just like most of south America if we don't stop them all from coming into this country. Already the poverty level is rising so that what used to be a modest income in the US is well below the poverty level. We have thousands of homeless Americans starving in the streets yet our government insists on ignoring our borders and doling out dollars to illegal immigrants. The American people aren't going to stand for this much longer.

Hi, juang, Mexicans don't need to come here to work b/c of OUR economy...nor should they b/c of THEIR economy. Mexico is the sixth largest economy in the world. Billions of dollars in oil sales...billions of dollars sent back from the immigrants here, both legal and illegal. Mexico needs to invest some of its billions in its own country..in its own people..in the education of those people...in sewage and roads...there are so many places the Mexican government could put some money that would help their own people, their own country...there is NO excuse for that government to continue to ignore its responsibilities to its own citizens.

Time for the Mexican citizens to STAY home and STAND up and vote in better government...stop the corruption...

Don't they have schools there? What the heck is the matter with those people?

NAFTA sure didn't help Mexico much.. sure, we added more jobs in mexico at American owned factories, but the wages are nothing... So we basically have a bunch of MExican slave wage factories.

Actually, a lot of those slave wage factories wound up pulling up stakes from Juarez in less than a year and moving on to China. Seems that all the people who wanted those jobs were already working them in the USA and they couldn't find any labor there. I shudder to think what became of the people who were here working in those jobs. The factories I'm referring to made textiles and cardboard boxes. I wasn't aware of it at the time and the thought never occurred to me, but I had a family of illegal neighbors across the street from me and the husband worked in one of those factories lost thanks to NAFTA. When the factory went across the border, they moved on somewhere. He was from somewhere in South America, she was from Mexico.
