It goes deeper than that. I just asked my wife this question and she points out (as I did), that EVERYONE knows someone here. All 16 million. They know the stories and their capacity to find work. Also, Mexico doesn't have the safety net of welfare.
Lastly, Hondurans and Central Americans in general, do not have a lot of sympathy for Mexicans, knowing that Mexicans go to the US all the time due to their proximity.
No safety net of welfare. That is all it’s about for millions. There and here.
And we wonder why our nation has changed.
