Many recieve dividends from Government payments for land that was taken from their Tribe without a proper Treaty,or a broken Treaty.Some,such as the Osage,recieve dividends for oil,or other valuable resources found on their land.

there are quite a number of communites in Mexico where people from the United States and Canada have retired. Among the more popular places are the following:\nLake Chapala near Guadalajara, San Migual de Allende, and Puerto Vallarta.\n\nThese three locations each have large populations of English speakers. However, be aware that it is likely that the current mayor of Mexico City is likely to be elected the next president of Mexico. He is considered to be very left leaning. Also be aware that in the past Mexico has frozen bank deposits and devalued drastically the peso.

Either way, the money doesn't get used in the U.S. as any corporation of the size to be able to open sites in Mexico has a ton of tax shelters that prevent paying taxes.  Mexico benefits far more from both situations than the U.S. does.

The reason that land belongs to the United States is because the people that lived there at the time wanted to be a part of the United States, not Mexico. Apparently, nobody wants to live in Mexico since they all want to come here. I wouldn't want to live in Mexico. If I were a Mexican citizen I would want the whole country of Mexico to become part of the United States.

Actually, many of them do pay taxes.\n\nFair! What is fair?\n\nIs it taking Californua, New Mexico and Texas from Mexico FAIR?\n\nYou tell me!!

I hope so.  It is time to liberate the Mexicans from the Junta that runs their nation.  Think of the benefits we would enjoy with the oil reserves of Mexico....plus it would stabalize democracy in a region that is dominated by socialist thugs and autocrats.\n\nSound familiar.

It goes back to the US-Mexican War of the mid 1800s. A good part of the Western US was claimed by Mexico and not yet part of the US. The US fought a war and won and paid a pittance in reparations to the Mexican government - something like $20 million (Not sure of the exact amount, though.) The next year, gold was discovered in California and the year after (1849), California was made a state. The Mexican government has been bitter about this ever since, especially since the amount of wealth taken from the Sierra foothills in the Gold Rush was many, many times greater than paid to the Mexican government. There has also been some rumblings from Spanish radio that that is why there are so many Mexican-Americans in Los Angeles - that they're trying to take it back by culturally overwhelming the city. I don't know if that is true; I have just read about it in some mainstream media stories here in CalifonriMF \n\nMaybe you don't live in California or have heard this before, but it is a REAL sentiment among many Mexican-Americans. (I am not Mexican  American; I am just reporting what I have read.)

No, you cannot own property in Mexico unless you are a citizen.  Too bad the US didn't think of that 100 years ago, then the Saudis would not own our counrty.

A better option would be to allow the Mexican public an opportunity to vote themselves in to a negotiated merger, or essentially a referendum on the performance of their government over the past century.  Of course the Mexican Goverment would never allow that any more than US Goverment would.  A huge amount of the reason that Mexicans come to the US looking for jobs is that the PRI managed to keep Mexico's economy from developing in a normal fashion during the bulk of the 20th century.  Some of the pandering of the US goverment to Mexico could very well be explained by a desire to see the PAN remain in control of the Goverment in Mexico, however in the long run the US needs to secure it's borders, punish US employers of Illegals and do what we can in helping Mexico provide enough jobs for their own population.  Though hypothetically combining the two countries does make some sense.

As those who rule what is now Mexico conquered lands from those who preceded them, the United States conquered lands that those who rule Mexico in the 1840s.  A major difference today is the way the two governments treat immigrants, that is legal immigrants.  \n\nVisitors and immigrants to Mexico are absolutely outsiders virtually forever, the Mexican government intent is to not assimilate them into their society.  In the United States the intent is to assimilate them into our society as rapidly as possible.  The only challenge is that of legality of the immigrant.  The current challenge is that the numbers of those who have come to the United States have swelled to unheard of numbers and most are undocumented immigrants.  These individuals are (for the most part) needed as part of the united States economy but should be “documented” both for the good of the United States and the immigrant (e.g., to get a living wage and benefits).  The reason for this is the way that Mexico is treating its own poor, that is, empowering them to leave for subsistent income.  \n\nSolutions will be found to address and solve the undocumented nature of the immigrant challenge and to control the increasing influx of such immigrants.  As that occurs, assimilation will occur as the younger people will become more a part of the cultures within the United States and while they will remain proud of their heritage, most will opt to remain in the United States (becoming full citizens) rather than return to areas of Mexico with less opportunity for their children.\n\nThe solutions to this are primarily two areas.  One is to control the border so that assimilation can occur are a easy pace and, to assist Mexico to change their economy so that these individuals will remain in their own country because of increased opportunity.  The United States might be able to assist with this by creating incentives for U. S. based companies which have developed branches in other countries to move those branches to Mexico.  This will assist creating new opportunities in Mexico developing a strong middle class with increasing purchasing power which will increase a more balanced trade between the United States and Mexico.  This type of goal is attainable because the Mexican people are intelligent and hard working with a desire for a better future.  The only question is, will the rulers of Mexico allow such a development.\n\nConsider the ultimate result of such a program, The three countries (with differences) Canada, Mexico, and the United States, increasingly working together as a block.  This would eventually draw in other Central American, Caribbean, and South American countries into a Western trading bloc unmatchable across the world.  \n\nWhile all such things as the current situation cause concern and challenges, they should be viewed as opportunities to develop new directions to ultimately enhance individual liberties.

Very bad. What if they sell the land out from under you? This is not a good idea at all.

No.  After the Mexican-American war Mexico ceded most of the land that makes up New Mexico to the United States.  The rest of the territory was purchased from Mexico (the Gadsden Purchase) around 1853.  The land remained a U.S. territory until New Mexico became a state.\n\nBTW, I think Billy the Kid was from New York originally anyway, so for him it's a moot point.

Indians pay taxes to the Indian Goverment and Mexicans pay taxes to the Mexican Goverment.
