A nice thought, and generous, but there is the problem of assimilation. If there are more of "us" then the immigrants become Americans. If there are more of "them" then our children become Mexicans.

Which do you prefer? The values of America or Mexico?

There are 250 million americans, and around 9 million mexican immigrants (including around 5 million undocumented). I fail to see the problem.

Mexico is a strongly religious (catholic) nation. Abortion is a no-no, they work hard for their money taking jobs most Americans won't, and believe strongly family (and they send back a PAINFUL percentage of their income to support those families this I know first hand), are there any particular problem with these values?
