Shocking. A Democrat making good sense. Yes, Mexico is at fault here, for having a crony economy and refusing to reform. It is more convenient to the ruling elite to send millions of your poorest workers over the border rather than actually do the hard work of finding them jobs.

Good point, but not a complete one.

You see, the ruling elite in Mexico realize that as long as they keep the massess ignorant, uneducated, and ardent soccer (football) fans, then they will be safe and can do what they want. What they want is to send the people to the US not only so they don't have to create jobs for them in Mexico, but because they can get so much richer by having the workers work in the US and send their wages back home. I can promise you that the small towns and villages are not seeing much of the money that is sent back. Somewhere along the way, the ruling class has figured out how to get a percentage off the top of whatever is sent back to Mexico. If you stop that circle, then the rich stop getting rich, on both sides of the border.

Mexico is part of the fault, however our very own politicans, who have no desire to stop the flow are also at fault.
