Mexico Doing Better Than The US

[mrjarrell]

And that's why many Mexicans are returning home. They have better economic growth, lower unemployment and inflation is under control. Maybe congress should look to Mexico and see what they're doing right.

Illegal Immigration from Mexico was already at its lowest point in 60 years. Lower birth rates among Mexican women through the use of contraception as well as an established democracy and manufacturing sector in the southern portion of the nation seems to have caused the drop off.

Illegal Immigration From Mexico At Lowest Level In Nearly 60 Years

Comment found in the comments from the article:

"I don't understand how do we get the figure -- "300,000 undocumented immigrants left California since 2008"? How do we trace somebody that is undocumented? And, is that number before or after, counting the millions of aliens, who are constantly flocking into our country?

Also, are the aliens mostly just leaving California? Would that probably be because there is so many illegals in Cali, that all the qualified jobs for illegals are taken? Hmmm.. And how do we know, that they are going back to Mexico?"

Good point(s). How is it that we can track these illegal/undocumented workers to know they are returning to Mexico and not just going to another state that actually has jobs unlike Cali?

Someday Americans may be sneaking into Mexico to find a better life.

Then the Feds will erect a Neo-Berlin Wall and keep Americans locked in.

I just had a mental image of Medvedev going 'Mr. Obama, tear down this wall!' and I'm still laughing.

Do you really believe that MEXICANS will be leaving the land of "MILK & HONEY", they are leaving california, cause it's to expensive to live there, but they'll go to another state

American retirees have been venturing there to live for decades. Their retirement goes a lot farther and their communities are quite nice. No reason folks couldn't live and work in an expat community or Mexico at large.

Actually happens very, very infrequently. Most places in Mexico are quite safe, as I've been told. It's just along the border and in some metro areas. Haven't heard of any problems for the expats there or folks going there for medical and dental treatments.

I won't go there, even if the cops lend me their M113 or V150

That was the impression I was given by a few folks when we've discussed taking cruises that would land us in a Mexican port. When you have big money flowing in, you keep it flowing. If that means keeping the kidnappers away, then that's what it means.

I wonder if Mexico's economy will do so well when we are no longer giving them any aid whatsoever. When the U.S. falls, it will be interesting to see how many nations we supposedly "help" have actually used our money to build themselves up instead of just wasting it.

Who care WHY they're leaving?




I guess I should edit that statement; Who cares WHY THE ILLEGALS are leaving?

A lot of our factories have moved to Mexico for cheap labor. So if they want a job they have to go where the work is.
