Facts only, not speculation. Your facts are old, questionable and not relevant to the current situation. Bring uptodate facts, and you might have a case.
Perhaps we're not giving the Mexicans credit in having more foresight than our ignominious leaders who want to fundamentally change America?

Mexico's rules on illegal immigrants are quite harsh so they feel more comfortable going back to Mexico than being in the USA?

I've been advocating that for years. Somewhere around 70% or so sounds about right.

Foodstamps are welfare. Many Hispanic illegals in South Texas have Lone Star Cards.

Some Mexican come in for the migrant to harvest the crops and help the farmers in some areas and in Canada , then they have to go back to Mexico or apply for citizenship within a period , as most go back to Mexico or they could lose their job as migrant the following year if they stay and become citizen , this is part of the free trade deal with NAFTA

Do you know how these people obtain food stamps if they don't have American social security numbers or American birth certificates?

I guess the illegals don't want to live with the Syrian refugees either.

Still 3% of them come here illegally to pick crops even though there are unlimited visas for legal, foreign crop pickers. All the others are taking jobs that Americans have always done but have been ran off their jobs because illegals work cheaper. Both their employers and they are equally guilty of breaking the law.

Now it is possible to know how many illegal immigrants arrive from Mexico? Who is counting the fence jumpers or river crossers? Do the illegals report in to someone for a head count?

More made up nonsense.

Nothing more than creating an illegal immigrant deficit so that Syrians can made up the difference and maintain some imaginary status quo.

I think it's always a good time to overhaul our entry policy, it sucks. The Cartel freeway can be addressed as well.
