Does anybody think that perhaps our national interests are better served by a secure (financially and hence, politically) Mexico? Its the only reason I can think of that our government would allow this to continue, since so much of the Mexican economy relies on the "remittances" from their expatriates.
An even more unstable Mexico might lead to even worse problems than we are seeing now.
Just wondering, there has to be a reason for this!

Lets see Mexico is sitting on billions in oil, the whole country is corrupt, violence and crime is everywhre, poverty, unemployment while a few rich cats have everything..it is ripe for another revolution, which may or may not be worse for the US. We had better be prepared for more illegal border crossers in any event. If they do have a revolution, put our military on the border with orders to shoot to kill. Close the border and see what happens, maybe they will bring out the guillotine like in France..as El Presidente de Mexico Fox probably would say..let them eat tortillas and beans...he has done nothing and fulfilled none of his promises. Its a sewer full of rats that needs a drastic change...What are we afraid of, communism? Unstable undemocratic Aphganistan and Iraq are being changed, most likely for the better, How much worse could Mexico become? Letting their people work here and send money home is a safety valve, but in the long run is it really hurting them not helping them, by only delaying the inevitable?
