Whatever the state of Mexico's economy is, the vast majority of illegal immigrants come here to find work. Some of them then protest here against efforts to keep others out, or to send the ones already here back, because, even though they may be here illegally, they argue that since they're now contributing postively to the American economy, we should let them stay. I'm not saying that I agree with that argument, but that's the rationale.

Illegal is the border that divides the American people.

I laugh everytime I hear this question... Did you know people protest/march daily in Mexico City? People from all over Mexico, they are called "campesinos" or peasants, come to Mexico City, D.F to protest and have their voice heard in the capital, so maybe something will get done......They shut down major avenues downtown, and that is no easy task with a population of over 22 million.....Every time I go visit there, I see protestors protesting some unfair practice the govt. is allowing or inflicting on its people at the Zocalo (downtown plaza), some even camp out there for days protesting.... So my question is, why do people here insist Mexicans do nothing to change their country? WHAT ELSE ARE THEY SUPPOSE TO DO? They don't allow guns, so all they can do is have peaceful protests..... You complain they are here protesting in our country, and don't do a thing to change theirs? And while Mexico is considered for the most a wealthy nation, it is because of its natural resources.....That wealth NEVER trickles down to its citizens, but stays in the hands of a few wealthy elite familes who own Mexico....Mexicans average income a year is about $7,100.....Here in the states it runs about $34,000....Could you live off $7,100 a year? I didn't think soo.... So please get informed and stop parroting what you hear everyone else say, it gets old hearing the same tired old questions.....

Because they can recieve more benefits here like health care and education. But that is no excuse for coming to this country illegally! ARREST, DEPORT, AND BUILD THE WALL!

Unlawful Entry is a CRIME. America love it or leave it. Unlawful Entry is a CRIME. Leave it Now. Zero tolerance for immigration-law violators! No amnesty, no "stealth-amnesty." No "change of status," marriage fraud, "exceptional leave to remain," no "Temporary Protected Status." If you break the law, depart or be deported. Illegal aliens kill more US citizens each year than the war in Iraq has killed in four years. Apologists for illegal immigration like to paint it as a victimless crime. But in fact, illegal immigration causes substantial harm to American citizens and legal immigrants, particularly those in the most vulnerable sectors of our population--the poor, minorities, and children. Additionally, job competition by waves of illegal immigrants willing to work at substandard wages and working conditions depresses the wages of American workers, hitting hardest at minority workers and those without high school degrees. Illegal immigration also contributes to the dramatic population growth overwhelming communities across America--crowding school classrooms, consuming already limited affordable housing, and straining precious natural resources like water, energy, and forestland. Taxpayers are being forced to pay for the free health care, education, and other welfare programs being given to illegal aliens; Those tax dollars could be given back to U.S. taxpayers or used to keep our borders secure; They may be here illegally, but they sure know how to "work the system" to collect "free" medical care, "free" education, "free" food, Section 8 housing vouchers and other housing assistance, and hundreds of other social services. It costs citizens additional hundreds of billions of tax dollars at every level: local, state, and federal. It gobbles up billions of our charitable contributions. And much of that money ends up siphoned out of our economy and into offshore accounts. Illegal aliens, over half of whom work "under the table" with neither job nor income reported (nor taxed), are not counted as employed or unemployed. But some of those day-labor and off-the-books "job-lets" would be "real" jobs - available to American citizen job-seekers - if employment regulations were enforced. Illegal aliens can get away with tax evasion, et al., which citizens cannot. In short, we have too many workforce entrants and too few jobs created. The ratio works out to roughly 7-10 workforce entrants per job created. If all illegal aliens depart or are deported, all legal immigration halted, and all temporary employment visas abolished, we still have a problem with more US-born workforce entrants than new jobs created. Illegal immigration damages our country and our citizens every day at every level. And not even the attacks of 2/26 and 9/11 have awakened many Americans to the vast dangers illegal immigration poses to our selves, our families, our communities, our society, our values, our principles, our civilization. Zero Tolerance for Immigration-Law Violators! We must remember the lessons of 2/26, 9/11, and the costs we bear every single day. God Bless the U S A !

because first of all in the country of mexico the president takes the money from the people and as hard as us mexicans try to make them listen they don't. we believe that the united states uses us for work because americans can not get their buts of their couch to work in jobs us mexicans work in. and we march here because we have as much rights as any american here in this country. we believe in unity in our famiies and if anybody messes with our family they mess with us.
