11 million people sending back billions of dollars in remittances. I think it's safe to say Mexico's economy would nearly collapse without American's money going South.
Is that a statement that all 11 million illegal aliens are of Mexican nationality?...
This isn't a process of just being intellectually lazy with claims...
So what would be YOur view of money legally earned (and taxed) in the United States?...

The main problem is that they are not settling here and embracing the culture. When my ancestors came from their country, they cut their ties. They didn't see this country as a meal ticket, they saw it as their future.
When 11 million (or 3 mil or 5 mil, whatever) are sending their money to Mexico instead of injecting it into this economy, that's a problem.
My view is that, in this case, there are too many illegal Mexicans sending back money never to be seen again in the U.S. ...
In YOur opinion, should a Mexican here legally (which FOX News identifies in an equal 6 million population) or a U.S. citizen be able to send a remittance to Mexico?...
(I don't know what an "illegal Mexican" is, unless it is just lazy terminology)...

Whom is "they"?...
So when I, a U.S. citizen, or my wife, a Mexican National, send money to my Mother-In-Law it harms the American economy? Are we "not settling here and embracing the culture" too? In earlier times, an immigrant could have easily brought their mother. I have to wait until my wife naturalizes to be able to sponsor her for immigration, which seems to have some resistance on this forum.

Hey, if I were in charge, you could bring her here today!. Buy her food, clothes, etc in the stores here. She could buy a house here, do her banking here. etc etc. Best of all, she would pay taxes here. Heck, yeah, bring her!
All that money would go into the US economy, instead of Mexico.
As long as she isn't collecting welfare, food stamps, etc. If you can afford to support her or she could support herself, I would throw the door wide open for her. That's what USA is all about!

They are here working legally so why would anyone have an issue with that. Personally I think the legal immigration process is swayed towards Mexico but since this is the II forum I'll leave it at that. I mean, what makes the Mexicans so special (in your opinion, of course) concerning illegal immigration?

Because if we have a solution there, it covers most of the problem...
More Mexicans qualify for legal immigration primarily from their relationship to U.S. citizens. So more Mexican immigrate legally than any other nationality. As the earlier FOX News quotation, it can assumed at least half of the remittances to Mexico are sent by legally immigrating Mexicans.
...When 11 million (or 3 mil or 5 mil, whatever) are sending their money to Mexico instead of injecting it into this economy, that's a problem.
So if I would take the money I had for a remittance, and bury it in my yard, that is harmful to the American economy? It's the same result. It's my own money, can't I give it away, bury, or burn it?

I'd like to know as well why Mexicans mean more to IBM.
