Hmmm, the information is in spanish from the Secretaría de Relaciones Exteriores. I include the site below.\n\nThere is a lot of information, but if you don't know spanish, I'll include some numbers.\n\n-----------------------------------------\nRegistry of people entering México:\n2003\nMexicans: 3,279,109\nForeigners: 16,722,883 \n\n2004\nMexicans: 3,434,188\nForeigners: 19,614,710\n\n2005\nMexicans: 4,428,437\nForeigners: 20,730,810\n\n--------------------\nRefugees accepted in 2005: 207\n\n-------------------\nNumber of foreigners with residence in Mexico in 2005: 3,445,083. (I didn't find the statistics, but over 1,000,000 were US citizens). In 2000 there were only 492,617 foreigners registered as legal residents. Almost a 700% growth in 5 years.\n\n------------------------------\n\nIn 2000, the number of mexicans emigrating to other countries was of 3,584,957. 1,569,157 of those were visiting the US. I don't have the return rate though, but I think it was around 30% - 40%.\n\n---------------------------------\n\nHope it helps

Someone else posted this two link earlier on another question.  I think it should answer a lot, though certainly not all, of your questions.\n\nhttp://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060521/ap_on_re_la_am_ca/mexico_limiting_immigrants\n\nOne link to start with, though I believe this one is written as to be ridiculously oversimplified:\n\nhttp://www.banderasnews.com/0508/nb-mexcitizen.htm\n\nA more in-depth article can be read at:\n\nhttp://www.bajainsider.com/baja-life/immigration/mexican-citizenship.htm\n\nI *particularly* like the part that states:\n\n"Along with this first rule a second one is composed of 3 conditions that one must respect: A) Speak Spanish; B) Have knowledge of the history of Mexico; C) Live with Mexican"\n\nWOW!  You mean in order to become a citizen of Mexico, I must speak the language, know the history and assimilate with the culture?!!  Yet, those who are coming here, legally or otherwise, expect the U.S. to cater to them by offering everything in Spanish as well as English.\n\nWell, now, if that isn't interesting!

How could mexicans walk around Illegally in their own country?\n\nDid you mean forefathers?  or fourfathers?\n\nAre all illegals Mexican?  \n\nAre all Mexicans illegal?\n\nReally, there is no simple answer. If you are genuinely concerned about this issue, I advise you to get as many facts together as you can.  Statistics, demographics, etc..\nRead various economic and cultural impact studies that would result from one type of action as opposed to others. \n\nThis issue is very complex, and you can not really provide a straight answer to a question blurted out of frustration.

I know what you mean and you have a point there but..... Is not up to the USA government or up to the American Corporation to establish new laws in Mexico. It's up to the Mexican government to make their laws be obeyed and create new laws for the benefits of their citizens. The problem is not the companies that goes to Mexico looking for cheap labor and pay the lease of money or benefits to the workers, the problem is the Mexican government that don't give a shit for their citizens. They are the big problem and they are so inept and corrupted that they rather send their citizens to the USA illegally than to creat new laws for the better of their citizens. Mexico is what the government and the Mexican people wanted to be,,,, what you see.

Mexico's Immigration Laws\n\n* Pursuant to Article 33, "Foreigners may not in any way participate in the political affairs of the country." This ban applies, among other things, to participation in demonstrations and the expression of opinions in public about domestic politics like those much in evidence in Los Angeles, New York and elsewhere in recent days.\n\n* Equal employment rights are denied to immigrants, even legal ones. Article 32: "Mexicans shall have priority over foreigners under equality of circumstances for all classes of concessions and for all employment, positions, or commissions of the Government in which the status of citizenship is not indispensable."\n\n* Jobs for which Mexican citizenship is considered "indispensable" include, pursuant to Article 32, bans on foreigners, immigrants, and even naturalized citizens of Mexico serving as military officers, Mexican-flagged ship and airline crew, and chiefs of seaports and airports.\n\n* Article 55 denies immigrants the right to become federal lawmakers. A Mexican congressman or senator must be "a Mexican citizen by birth." Article 91 further stipulates that immigrants may never aspire to become cabinet officers as they are required to be Mexican by birth. Article 95 says the same about Supreme Court justices. In accordance with Article 130, immigrants - even legal ones - may not become members of the clergy, either.\n\n* Foreigners, to say nothing of illegal immigrants, are denied fundamental property rights. For example, Article 27 states, "Only Mexicans by birth or naturalization and Mexican companies have the right to acquire ownership of lands, waters, and their appurtenances, or to obtain concessions for the exploitation of mines or of waters."\n\n* Article 11 guarantees federal protection against "undesirable aliens resident in the country." What is more, private individuals are authorized to make citizen's arrests. Article 16 states, "In cases of flagrante delicto, any person may arrest the offender and his accomplices, turning them over without delay to the nearest authorities." In other words, Mexico grants its citizens the right to arrest illegal aliens and hand them over to police for prosecution. Imagine the Minutemen exercising such a right!\n\n* The Mexican constitution states that foreigners - not just illegal immigrants - may be expelled for any reason and without due process. According to Article 33, "the Federal Executive shall have the exclusive power to compel any foreigner whose remaining he may deem inexpedient to abandon the national territory immediately and without the necessity of previous legal action."\n\nSource:\nhttp://www.centerforsecuritypolicy.o...ration_Law.pdf

Mexico’s Immigration Law: Let’s Try it Here at Home 1\nMexico’s Immigration Law: Let’s Try it Here at Home\nBy J. Michael Waller\nMexico has a radical idea for a rational immigration policy that most Americans would\nlove. However, Mexican officials haven’t been sharing that idea with us as they press for\nour Congress to adopt the McCain-Kennedy immigration reform bill.\nThat’s too bad, because Mexico, which annually deports more illegal aliens than the\nUnited States does, has much to teach us about how it handles the immigration issue.\nUnder Mexican law, it is a felony to be an illegal alien in Mexico.\nAt a time when the Supreme Court and many politicians seek to bring American law in\nline with foreign legal norms, it’s noteworthy that nobody has argued that the US look at\nhow Mexico deals with immigration and what it might teach us about how best to solve\nour illegal immigration problem. Mexico has a single, streamlined law that ensures that\nforeign visitors and immigrants are:\n• in the country legally;\n• have the means to sustain themselves economically;\n• not destined to be burdens on society;\n• of economic and social benefit to society;\n• of good character and have no criminal records; and\n• contributors to the general well-being of the nation.\nThe law also ensures that:\n• immigration authorities have a record of each foreign visitor;\n• foreign visitors do not violate their visa status;\n• foreign visitors are banned from interfering in the country’s internal politics;\n• foreign visitors who enter under false pretenses are imprisoned or deported;\n• foreign visitors violating the terms of their entry are imprisoned or deported;\n• those who aid in illegal immigration will be sent to prison.\nWho could disagree with such a law? It makes perfect sense. The Mexican constitution\nstrictly defines the rights of citizens – and the denial of many fundamental rights to noncitizens,\nillegal and illegal. Under the constitution, the Ley General de Población, or\nGeneral Law on Population, spells out specifically the country’s immigration policy.\nIt is an interesting law – and one that should cause us all to ask, Why is our great\nsouthern neighbor pushing us to water down our own immigration laws and policies,\nwhen its own immigration restrictions are the toughest on the continent? If a felony is a\ncrime punishable by more than one year in prison, then Mexican law makes it a felony to\nbe an illegal alien in Mexico.\nIf the United States adopted such statutes, Mexico no doubt would denounce it as a\nmanifestation of American racism and bigotry.\nMexico’s Immigration Law: Let’s Try it Here at Home 2\nWe looked at the immigration provisions of the Mexican constitution.[1] Now let’s look\nat Mexico’s main immigration law.\nMexico welcomes only foreigners who will be useful to Mexican society:\n• Foreigners are admitted into Mexico “according to their possibilities of\ncontributing to national progress.” (Article 32)\n• Immigration officials must “ensure” that “immigrants will be useful elements for\nthe country and that they have the necessary funds for their sustenance” and for\ntheir dependents. (Article 34)\n• Foreigners may be barred from the country if their presence upsets “the\nequilibrium of the national demographics,” when foreigners are deemed\ndetrimental to “economic or national interests,” when they do not behave like\ngood citizens in their own country, when they have broken Mexican laws, and\nwhen “they are not found to be physically or mentally healthy.” (Article 37)\n• The Secretary of Governance may “suspend or prohibit the admission of\nforeigners when he determines it to be in the national interest.” (Article 38)\nMexican authorities must keep track of every single person in the country:\n• Federal, local and municipal police must cooperate with federal immigration\nauthorities upon request, i.e., to as
