This will surely kill Social Security.

My take on this proposal is that it can not be retroactive. Sounds more like a new policy for a worker program to be started. I can not see how it could possibly be used to give anyone ss benefits retroactively for people without valid ID's. Well that is how I read it anyway. Either way the ss system is going to be abused and now we will be competing on a global scale for the few remaining jobs left.

It sounds like some of this is for illegals who worked here and went back to Mexico --- their pensions in Mexico are less for the time they went to the USA, worked illegally and sent money back to Mexico.

If Fox really believes they are the "heros of Mexico" as he claims --- why doesn't Mexico just pay them their whole pension as if they had worked there the whole time? Certainly sending money back for whatever number of years was very good for the Mexican government.

The Mexican government and Fox can take some responsibility for bettering the lives of illegals --- especially those who went back home.
