Remember first that Mexico has even harsher laws dealing with illegal aliens than we do. Yes, Mexico does have a problem with illegals. Not heading south from the United States, but heading North out of Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua and other Central American countries. If these people are caught in Mexico illegally it's pretty much straight to jail ... and nobody screams about racial profiling.

But there is something flowing South into Mexico from the United States. Dollars. About one billion dollars every month, to be more precise. These dollars are being sent home to Mexico by illegals working in this country ... sent home to support families. This is the second biggest single source of income for the Mexican economy. Calderon is in trouble .. he's fighting a drug war and his economy isn't exactly on a roll. If America enforces it's immigration laws with anything close to the determination with which Mexico enforces theirs ... the money would dry up and Mexico would be in deep salsa.
