I'm over 50. I've lived in Texas most of my life. Long before NAFTA or any other treaty, Mexicans have long crossed the Rio Grande River in large numbers. They aren't here because we are there. They are here because there sucks. Grinding poverty, unbridled corruption there and a hope for a better life here have long brought Mexicans here.
