Lack of jobs and economic desperation is what drives hundreds of thousands of Mexicans to cross the border illegally every year seeking jobs here, according to Arnal Palomera.

OK so this is our fault? We have to spend billions of OUR dollars to fix it? I guess everyone figures we enjoy being a candy store for the world.

It's not a matter of fault it's a simple matter of solution. If we want to solve the problem that's the best solution, like most functional solutions determining who screwed up is really a waste of effort. I think it's a crappy answer too, but it's the one that'll work.

Simple solution - we print pesos and hand them out at the border. The trade-off is the person taking the pesos can't cross the border into here.

And where the heck is LAFTA during all this economic trouble in Mexico? Seems to me that the Felon himself and all his supporters in Congress promised that LAFTA would cure Mexico's ills? Was that another stupid mistake on his part? Errr, could be!
