Mexicans Returning to Mexico Outnumber Those Leaving Country
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,524826,00.html
MEXICO CITY — A government survey finds Mexican emigration dropped 13 percent in the first quarter of 2009 — an ongoing trend as the U.S. economic recession discourages Mexicans from crossing the border in search of work. The National Statistics and Geography Institute found that 137,497 people left Mexico in the first three months of 2009, compared to 159,024 during the same period of 2008. More people returned to Mexico than left: Immigration to Mexico rose from 120,715 to 138,599 in the first quarter, a 12 percent increase. The institute released its findings from household surveys Tuesday. Mexican emigration has dropped steadily over the past two years, a trend experts attribute to the U.S. economic downturn and tighter border security.

I don't believe any statistics coming out of Mexico. Especially any statistics about immigration, legal or otherwise. I'd like to believe this one though.

Its been really bad for a while now. More returning than leaving and the infrastructure cannot handle it.
So sad... now Mexico is having the same problems we are having! Let them immigrate legally the way our families did.

Build a fence? Why? Our government WANTS MORE of them coming into the U.S. I can't think of another issue, other than maybe the bailouts, where the gov't. is doing exactly the opposite of what the vast majority of people want the gov't. to do.
