I was looking around online for any sign of a copy of a formal agreement btw Mexico and the US allowing Mexican nationals to enter the US however they can. This is all I've found so far; it's not an agreement but it is an official statement from the Mexican Embassy in DC. If anyone knows of further formal information on it your post is appreciated!

This is a page in a submenu of the Embassy's website (a very unprofessional job IMO -- check the FAQ section -- and many English pages are clearly verbatim cut and pastes from a web translation program).

Embassy of Mexico in Washington - MIGRATION

Its main menu is titled "Bilateral Relation" in the T of C, "Mexico-US Relations" on its main page.

This proves Mexico only want to leech off the USA.

Can anyone factually tell me why we need mexican labors when we've got millions of able-bodied bums on the government's tit?

I was hoping it might be possible to read between the lines at the embassy's page(s).

That's exactly right. They feel they're entitled to that.
They've been always open about that concept.

Could you give a link to a source on the internet in which any representative from either government expresses that? I'm interested in tracking down the details of this, how it came to this point, arent you? If you know, please give links.

North American Agreement on Labor Cooperation

Exactly what lines are you implying?

From what I got from the page:

They want to make border jumpers legal and safe while on the taxpayer's dime.

We REALLY need mexican labor, even though unemployment hovers 10% AND we have millions of welfare slugs of our own sitting around doing nothing.

They want to make illegal aliens to have the same rights as we do while working.

They want to make the mexicans immigrating into this country a priority.

I can go on, providing I read it a second time.

I'm getting tired of hearing about the south of the border.

How about anything related to the north of our border? Any sources on what's been happening on that? How did the Canadians/Canada fare since NAFTA? Etc etc.

Well, let's look it up, shall we?

In fact one of those documents talks some about Canada's role in this trilateral agreement. Perhaps more documents exist online.

I'm not "implying" anything. Ive explained it enough, but I'm looking for serious information on this agreement, trying to find out how we got to this state of chaos. These are what Ive found.
