That is wrong, since in Mexico Dollars do not circulate. we pay everything in Pesos not in Dollars once those dollars arrive here they are exchanged mostly by the Corporations of your country to take their Profits Back. we do not keep dollars to our economy.

Well of course not. Why should they? It's our endeavor and I for one and am happy to green light my tax money being used.

There is no proof the Mexican illegal immigration is down nor that many of them are leaving that are already here. Many coming thru our border today are Central Americans and they are coming thru Mexico and we have million of illegal aliens still here so I don't know what you think you are bragging about. Those who have roots here and jobs here aren't leaving voluntarily either.


The wall is nonsensical? Really? Considering what a devastating affect that illegal immigration has on our own citizens why would you call opposition to it a "rant"?

What their President may not realize is that his refusal may not necessarily make a tinker's damn. Not helping to may it could also mean no input on the structure. Leave it all on Trump's lap on how to erect it as he wants it. Love it.

A little tough to accomplish if it's layered with masses of concertina wire.

And? If I'm paying for a fence, my neighbor has no input about it's design, but I don't expect him to pay for my fence either.

Actually you have a very good point. The employers in mexico should pay the same rate as here.......


I believe in a World trades union. that is as in AFL-CIO.........World Federation of Labor.
