    i don't know a lot about these issues, but here is my uninformed position. i am from arizona, which everyone knows has a HUGE illegal immigrant population. my understanding is mexico's policy towards illegal immigrants isn't so forgiving in comparison to ours. i don't mind that people come here for a better life, but there is a problem when people get fake social security cards and rape our tax dollars. my friend's father wrote a few books on this issue (he was a uni professor) and i remember reading: "in comparison mexico may have a lower standard of living than the us and canada, but in comparison to many countries its standard of living is much higher". that isn't a direct quote, but it is something to think about. i don't know what my stance is on this issue, but i know i have more reading to do.
