Why not make Mexico the 58th state since most of their people are over here and they’re sending money back south. A couple years ago, I read those monies are their second highest resource with the gas and oil industry being first.

Might be too late for that. America is effectively already the 32nd state of the Estados Unidos Mexicanos.

And, there’s been bills presented that the money from places like Western Union be taxed, since so much of it was cash. From what I remember, the amount of revenue from the money sent back home would be significant, but of course the lobbyists jumped in like a pack of wolves and that was it.
