with illegals here,should the USA allow Mexico to interfere with our government?

Absolutely not.  The government in Mexico has all they can handle and they haven't done that well .

It is not easy to get into this country legally, but most things worth doing are not easy.  As you said no other country, including Mexico, allows free and undeterred migration to their country so why should the USA.  The USA is a major terrorist target and we must KNOW who is coming into our country to protect our people and property from attack. It is about the greater good.  We could open our boarders and allow any and all who want to cross to come in but then how safe would they be after the bombings, gassing and killings started.

I agree. If we were to do that down their, the Mexicans with be hating us. If you live in America, U wave the American flags.

US immigration officials should take a look at those.  If Mexico wants to be that harsh to other country's citizens, well by golly, we should be that harsh to theirs!  Maybe then we won't have so many Mexican migrant workers crossing over our border illegally to get free education, free medical care and free housing.

I agree with you.  Mexico has programs set up to assist their citizens in coming over the border.  If we cut off all assistance to their country I bet you'd see a different philosophy.  They have grown too accustomed to our dollars.  If we charged a percentage to those wiring money back to Mexico....you'd see changes.  If we tried to charge them for returning their nationals, I think you'd see mobbing in the streets.\n\nActually there are military in Mexico who protect the drug cartel that makes the runs between our countries.....and they are well armed and very dangerous.\n\nWe are dealing with people who want us to play by the "nice" rules while they do as they please....and apparently, get away with it.

I think that should ONLY apply to Mexico.  They are the ones who are abusing our system.  They are the ones draining our tax dollars.  They are the ones who don't pay their hospital bills, causing over 80 hospitals in California to go bankrupt. They are the ones getting in our faces, dragging our flag on the ground, telling us to learn Spanish, telling us that they are taking back "their" country. They are the ones who have left massive trash and destruction in our deserts and they are the ones who are committing the most crimes in California. Let's allow all those other nationals who have had to be put on the back burner first shot at citizenship.  Let's spend the year gathering and deporting.

Mexico does not put up with the illegal immigrants the way they want the United States to do it.\n\nThe Mexican government constantly hectors the American people about how we should treat its illegal migrants. President Vicente Fox, Foreign Secretary Ernesto Derbez, and Mexican consuls in the United States insist that Americans should be grateful for the hundreds of thousands of surplus Mexicans who break across our border each year. Without them, these leaders explain, the American economy would grind to a halt (never mind that Mexico’s management of its own affairs would seem to undercut the officials’ economic expertise). Therefore, as a token of appreciation for keeping us afloat, say the Mexican apologists, we must grant amnesty to the law-breakers and reward them for illegal entry with a host of rights.\n\nFine. If Mexico wants to dictate our immigration policy to us, let’s follow their example to the letter. That example is particularly relevant on this further day of protests demanding amnesty for illegals. Among the demonstrators in at least 60 cities nationwide will undoubtedly be thousands of border lawbreakers. What would Mexico do? The answer is easy: deport them on the spot. In 2002, a dozen American college students, in Mexico legally, participated peacefully in an environmental protest against a planned airport outside of Mexico City. They swiftly found themselves deported as law-breakers for interfering in Mexico’s internal affairs.\n\nIf Mexico was willing to strip these students of their duly-obtained travel visas, imagine what it would have done had the students broken into the country surreptitiously—not just summary deportation but undoubtedly howls of complaint to the U.S. government for winking at this double violation of Mexican sovereignty. Open borders propagandists in the U.S. constantly present deportation as a patent act of cruelty that no right-thinking person would tolerate. Yet Mexico has no qualms about deporting not just illegals but legal immigrants as well whom it deems fractious.\n\nIf participation in an environmental protest constitutes unlawful interference in Mexico’s internal affairs, how much more intrusive would it deem mass demonstrations to legalize immigration law-breakers? No issue is more central to a country’s sovereignty than immigration policy. Yet we won’t be seeing any statements by Mexican diplomats today urging its citizens in the U.S. to refrain from efforts to influence American laws.\n\nIt is particularly delicious to imagine what would happen if American students in Mexico ran the American flag up a flag pole over an upside down Mexican flag, as students in a Southern California high school did last month. An international crisis! Each participant would be promptly ejected and possibly the American ambassador as well. When President Ernesto Zedillo tried to revise Mexican textbooks in the 1990s to be more favorable toward U.S. foreign policy, Mexico’s pundits denounced him as a traitor. Yet Mexican consuls in the U.S. work mightily to disseminate Mexican textbooks in U.S. schools and they have raised not a peep of remonstrance against Mexican protesters carrying signs such as THIS IS STOLEN LAND and WE DIDN’T CROSS THE BORDER, THE BORDER CROSSED US during the mass demonstrations last month.\n\nEfforts to portray the student protesters in particular as modern day civil rights crusaders are laughable. Far from representing a sacrifice, cutting school is something of a tradition among Hispanics in the U.S., who have a high school dropout rate of just under 50 percent. Taxpayers must pay for the schooling of illegal aliens and their children, yet local schools get stiffed on their per-pupil payments from their state governments because truancy rates are so high. Immigration protests just drive the base truancy rate up higher. In December 2003, the school district in Santa Ana, California, the most Spanish-speaking large city in the country, promised t

Apparently Mexico does on its southern border what it does not want the US to do on its southern border.  Mexico's stance is two-faced. What the US needs is a policy that mandates shooting anyone attempting to enter the US illegally.

We should, but it wont happen.  The Mexican government can't provide needed service to its poor people that is why they headed north to the US where they can got free medical, free services.

I dont know what a "Mexican issue" would be. If you are talking about illegal immigrants, I think that it is a bad thing that we need to have under control

Mexico is all for their citizens slipping into our country and 'earning' money to bring back to their country.. what better and easier way to bring in the bucks and help their economy? As a matter of fact, the Mexican government, for the past few years, has been issuing a pamphlet to it's citizens instructing them on how to 'avoid injury and possible death' when crossing the border to search for employment.  OUR government knew about this pamphlet all along but did nothing until just recently when American citizens began raising hell about it.  EACH illegal who comes to this country takes IN approximately $2700. MORE than they pay out in taxes.. IF they pay any at all.  That totals to somewhere around $10 BILLION dollars each year! OUR government.. WE taxpayers.. are shipping $10 BILLION to Mexico for nothing!  Illegals put a strain on our system that is very near to breaking it.. they stress our hospitals [they have no insurance], they stress our schools [we have no government allotments for non-citizens but they still gain something resembling an education] and they put a nearly choking stress on our penal and judicial systems. Where illegals gather, the crime rate jumps nearly 75% in some places.  And as if all of that weren't bad enough, illegals are solely responsible for actually bringing LEPROSY back into this country..among many other untreated and untested diseases.  We MUST do something!  Each one of us has the power to make a difference.. at the very least we vote out the members of our government who turn a blind eye to this problem.. but even better.. raise your voice! Write your representatives.. again and again ..for as long as it takes to make them listen.  If we sit idly by and do nothing.. then we have no one to blame when the primary language in this country becomes Spanish.

It SOUNDS like a good idea,  but my concern would be corrupt officials who would cheat the people.  And that's not aimed at only Mexican officials, we certainly have our share of them here in the States. You can't hardly listen to the news without hearing about some corrupt official being busted. If we could work out a way to do it so the help really went to the people who needed it most, I'd say go for it! I would be willing to help, because strong neighbors are much better neighbors than those who are in need. It would, in the long run, benefit the entire American continents and countries.

Yes.  It will continue to be ignored.  We are being taken over from within.  The Mexican government knows this and encourages it's citizens to illegally enter the U.S.  The only reason it's tolerated by politicians is that U.S. Company's will continue to have a source of cheap labor.  Think about it, they don't pay these people even the minimum wage.  They receive no benefits.  They are paid under the table so they also collect welfare benefits.  75% of the country want the borders closed, but the politicians continue to fiddle while the country burns.  At this rate, we will become North Mexico within 40 years.

Contrary to what Tylerwifee contains in that pea brain head of hers, I, Mexican by birth and first generation in this great country, am going to answer your question.\n\nA; Yes, the borders should be enforced, The security of the nation is at risk. No long ago, two Egyptians were trying to enter the country from Mexico, with Mexican documents, but didn't speak any Spanish. If they can, Terrorist can.\nB; The northern border should be on watch just the same way, though I don't know the immigration laws of Canada, and how hard it is to enter their country.\nC; Yes, The US as a Nation has the right to claim the sovereignty of their land, and obedience to the laws shall be observed. Even when this means no more Illegals entering the country.\nD; No, I don't think there is hypocrisy, the complaints are based on real statistics about our social structure, though some may exagerate it, the cost that illegals create is high, even higher than the unclaimed paid Taxes.\nE; This question I don't understand, what does crossing the border entitles anyone to? I you mean to cross it freely, then yes.\nF; No, they are trying to find a solution to the problem, I may be ingenuous, but I believe in the US government.

Well, you should ask the Mexican government.
