People don't "sneak" into places like Bangladesh, Central Africa or South American dictatorships. They don't even sneak into second world countries. They sneak into FIRST WORLD countries like ours, Europe, Australia and a hand full of anomalous countries.
Mexico HELPS the Central/South Americans who want to get to the USA. With friends like Mexico we don't need any enemies.
And, in Central America MEXICO is called the "GIANT OF THE NORTH."
It's a lot to do with perspective, don't you think?
Probably is perspective. I had a German tell me once that it was just luck that I was born American and I shouldn’t be arrogant about it. I told him that I was 25% German and no where near as arrogant as he was.
As they say: Damn Gringo, take me with you.
