The Border: Depending on whose estimate you use, there are anywhere from 12 million to 30 million people in the U.S. illegally. Why so many? One word: incentives.
Some of the incentives are small, some large. But taken together, they constitute an economic magnet too powerful for poor people south of the border to resist.

The looters of Mexico want to have the freedom to loot America.
After spending several years starting oil exploration crews for Pemex, I think I have The reason Mexico has become so bad.
I like the Mexican people in the fly over parts of Mexico. The mid level and workers of Pemex are good. It is the government and the high up in Pemex that are the vultures and looters. The peso was about 8 cents (12.5 to a dollar). When Pemex found the sito grande, a very large oil pool that covers parts of the states of Chiapas and Tabasco also a long ways into the Gulf of Mexico.
Pemex borrowed billions to produce this great oil find. The looters (government) stole most of the money and what they did buy was junk oil rigs and drill pipe, etc. 1,000 pesos which was worth about $80 now will not buy a coke (old pesos). This was due to the looters stealing billions from the Mexican people.
Instead of overthrowing the looters the Mexican people had an out, they had no weapons and they could cross into America and have a much safer life. This hurts both Mexico and America as Mexico lost some of it's hardest workers. The gangbangers and welfare frauds also came over from Mexico as they could rape and pillage at will.
The government of Mexico is propped up by the billions sent back by the illegals and by our government having borders that are too open.
The only chance I see to help America and Mexico is to seal the border, deport the people who are not here legally. We also need to arm the Mexican people so they can have a chance against the looters with their armies.
Just have a bank account open for three months and don't bounce any checks during that time and a card is yours.
Well, not just that, it's also left to the discretion of the individual credit officer, just in case any FReepers were getting any ideas about a BofA financed shopping spree. You'd better be dusky hued and speak broken English (or none at all). You might want to ask if your championship fighting rooster can have one too.

If what I just wrote made you sad or angry,
it was probably just a joke.
Ain't going to happen. With the seven families that run all of Mexico and control all of the money, they don't care about the government or the people. The only way to change things is to control the money. Hell, even here, we know that money talks and when you are talking about billions, it talks real big and strong.
Once again...."Follow the money!"
I can't open an account without legal ID because of Federal Law on money laundering. There is a known danger or risk of illegal aliens being involved in the drug trade.
How is it that they can open virtually anonymous accounts when I can't?
"letting Mexicans here illegally send billions home'
When it becomes illegal to send money out of the country, the country isn't worth fighting for.
And after all that, you get a credit card with a five hundred dollar limit. This has Americans in a higher dudgeon than agreeing to send more tons of energy to the muderous regime in NK for another round of nuclear blackmail.

The Bush years have been good to Western Union.
