Mexico relaxes penalties on undocumented
I wonder how many people really think that the so-called “immigration problem” really has to do with inadequate amounts of walls and weaponry strung across one part of this land? Or that the crux is simply Mexico’s economy? People are embarking on long, amazingly ambitious and dangerous sojourns, and from further away than Mexico.
MEXICO has done away with a splinter of hypocrisy when dealing with the issue of migrants traveling across the earth seeking a better life

—Mexico will no longer jail illegal immigrants
I wonder…how many people really think that the so-called “immigration problem” really has to do with inadequate amounts of walls and weaponry strung across one part of this land? Or that the crux is Mexico’s economy? Because people are embarking on long, amazingly ambitious and dangerous sojourns, and from further away than Mexico.

After reading “Fast Food Nation” a couple of years ago and learning how meatpacking plants and agribusiness depend on undocumented workers, I suspect many big corporations would simply collapse if not for the steady stream of undocumented labor to exploit. Not that these same companies would ever admit such a thing.
In other words, I guess, what mariamariacuchita said.
Yeah. What you said.
