Why Mexicans immigrate to the US

It's an old article, but perhaps if Americans really want to keep their neighbors out, they should do drugs, destroy their economy and bribe officials.

Fair enough, considering how certain people acted last time :dead:

Mexico is fubared as it is without the US adding to it.:stare:

Crime (81%), economic problems (75%), illegal drugs (73%) and corrupt political leaders (68%), those Mexico statistics make for some scarey reading, its no wonder someone would want out of there.


Its a tough ask but if president Calderón can get the drug cartels under control the crime and illegal drugs figures will more than likely plummet, that would be quite an incentive for mexicans to stay put wouldnt it?.

The US would need to be more active in the country though, ie more help to train the army and police personnel, just keep your troops out of there or it could blow up in to something a lot worse.:nope:

I wouldn't even want to vacation there, let alone live there.

The sooner the better.
This problem is ages old, and the newer generations are being born into it, they know no other way of life. It will become endemic, and therefore next to impossible to change.
And inevitably will spill over (which is already noticeable, I believe).

Are you being sarcastic?
Cause I'd say they are already doing a very good job...

I was being sarcastic.
But the second part of your post worries me.

How so?

In my opinion, if they come legally and work for a living, more power to them.

If they run drugs, murder Americans, smuggle people illegally, ... activate the National Guard. They sure as hell aren't going anywhere anytime soon. It'll give them something to actually guard.

The drastic cure...

Saddle up our spears and head south. Annexation to give them a taste of their own medicine. Then, round them all up and deport them north.:hmmm:

I think I'll move to Cancun.:up:

We have a few hundred military bases, leftovers from the cold war, we could easily shutdown and place about 50 large bases on the border with armed security post about every mile.

I feel for them, but we fought a revolution and a civil war to settle our issues, they somehow need to settle their own

Please, for the love of God, tell me that's a joke. You can't honestly be advocating a war with Mexico. Do you have any regard for Human life? :nope::down:

War? Heaven forbid! I'm talking land rush to push them off the land that they don't seem to want to live on. Sure, they have problems there. Problems they do nothing to solve. Instead they run here and begin making demands on us to accommodate them because they're too lazy to make their home a better place to live. It's pathetic.:arrgh!:
