"I'm curious as to how Mexico deals with immigration?"


Well, from what I've read, US Citizens cannot become Mexican citizens. Non-Mexican's cannot own property....they can lease the land and build on it, but they can never own it. If the lease is ever revoked or runs out, you lose everything. Work permits in Mexico are very strict and limited.

Seems they have the policy that we don't. I do believe it is very hypocritical of them to cry about how we handle illegals when they do much worse.

Yes, it is amazing that the Fox government in Mexico City can make all these demands/request on to us when in fact they treat their own citizens a lot worse. They certainly do have a lot of nerve in doing such.

I heard today on the radio Senator Jim Talent coming out against driver licenses for illegal aliens and he also voiced his concern how illegal immigration is putting a big burden on the states. I'm wondering if you've heard any of this.

"....US Citizens cannot become Mexican citizens.

I believe that to be true, but IIRC, it is the United States that prohibits dual citizenship while Mexico endorses it. American law equally fails its citizenry in this area when it comes to immigration code...

Actually you can --- but THEY expect you to follow the rules.
