Mexico is in the fix it's in, ecomnomically, because the 3 primary companies are quaise-government owned and strongly controlled by the Unions in the companies. Many of the people streaming north cannot get work because of the intractble problem.

The best way to stop illegal immigration, is to create a legal framework for it. The best way to stem the immigration, is to help Mexico become a country of laws, not of men, and to help them get the economic engine going.

NAFTA was supposed to help stop illegal immigration.

As far the price of food going up beacuse the cheap labor isn't here, well, I expect you could pay minimum wage for picking fruit and it wouldn't change who is doing it. I know many of you will not/do not shop a Walmart, but the majority of America does. If you increase the price of food produced in the USA, people will buy imported food.
