I think it’s pretty bad. I know one lady that works in a hotel in Ft. Stockton, TX that says she goes across the border 1x per month to take gifts to portions of her family left in Mexico.

She is here legally, but they’ve never tried. I asked how far it was and she said about 2 hours. She said you’d never find it without a hand drawn map as their “homes” are down dirt roads and they have no running water or electricity.

She said she takes clothes, shoes and food that they cannot afford to buy. She works a 2nd job so she can do this w/o depriving her own family....

Sounds bad to me.

Typical sob story. The Mexicans are the biggest whiners that ever lived, bleeding the gringo and the gringa all the while, wiring billions of US dollars back to the villages every year. Yeah, it's bad .... for America.
