10% Of Mexicans Live In U.S. (I.E. MEXICO SUCKS!)
J.J. Jackson | May 21, 2006
How bad is life in Mexico? So bad that 10% of their population doesn’t even live there and 14% of their work force is in the United States. Talk about failed social and political experiments!
Washington — The current migration of Mexicans and Central Americans to the United States is one of the largest diasporas in modern history, experts say.Roughly 10 percent of Mexico’s population of about 107 million is now living in the United States, estimates show. About 15 percent of Mexico’s labor force is working in the United States. One in every 7 Mexican workers migrates to the United States.
Mass migration from Mexico began more than a century ago. It is deeply embedded in the history, culture and economies of both nations. The current wave began with Mexico’s economic crisis in 1982, accelerated sharply in the 1990s with the U.S. economic boom, and today has reached record dimensions. – San Francisco Chronicle
Mexico is awash in human capital. 107 million is roughly a third of the population of the United States. There is absolutely no excuse why in a country with that many people, with as much natural beauty as Mexico has and with the abundance of natural resources Mexico has for this to be the case.
I said there is no excuse. But there is a good reason – political and social corruption. Mexico fails to protect the rights of its citizens to own property. Squatting is rampant. And the air of entitlement is thick. But when a country doesn’t even recognize the basic rights of its citizens how can they be expected to prosper?
So they do what all failed political systems do. They find the country that at least has a functioning governmental system and dump their problems upon them. It doesn’t solve their own problems but it makes them less prominent. And when, as a country, you are simply trying to minimize the damage of your own policies you are in deep trouble.
And as long as we continue to let Mexico dump their problems on us and as long as we continue to prop up the failed system south of the border instead of letting it fail we only continue to exasperate the problem. We, as Americans, have a habit of doing this. When the best thing to do in the long run is teach those that we prop up to fish and fix their own problems and become self reliant instead of continually handing them a fish every time they ask.

Mexcio need to fucking die
you spelled mexico wrong you fucking dumbass redneck bastard
Well then “bob friend” I guess you are also a “dumbass redneck bastard” because you also spelled “mexico” wrong. It should be “Mexico”. Notice the capital “M”.
Ha ha ha hello guys I am from Mexico
ha ha I can not really stop laughing
peace.
Yeah it is kind of pathetic that so many Mexicans live in the United States. I’d laugh too … about all I could do if I were from Mexico.
hey cabrones we just taking back what u all stold in mid 1800. haha. we r just taking it back little by little.soon spanish will b the first language
You mean the land that those there before the evil “white man” kept stealing from each other?
And if you really want to reclaim the land, why embrace Spanish? The language of those from Europe that originally conquered Mexico?
more than 2500,000 white americans live in Mexico
so what’s the problem??
latinos,africans,americans..
we are humans we can live anywhere
the law was invented but we are real
we are free.
Once again BIG difference between doing something legally and doing it illegally here that you don’t seem to want to understand.

“we are humans we can live anywhere”
Dumb statement. If you decide you want to move into Bill Gates’s basement because you believe that you can “live anywhere” can you?
No. Why? Because there is such a thing as private property and the law.
I don’t want to move into Bill Gates’s basement
why? because i don’t know that place & i don’t want to..,I don’t care whom cares..
thanks.
Take it easy Pancho Villa the spanish is second place in U.S.A

In other words you cannot debate the stupidity of your previous statement so you are just willing to dismiss the response.
In other words you can say what you “want”
but you can’t say what i think & what i say
bye.
perfection=”first world”

“In other words you can say what you “want”
but you can’t say what i think & what i say
bye.”
No, but I can quote EXACTLY what you said:
“we are humans we can live anywhere”
And rebut it once again with a statement you have no comeback to:
“Dumb statement. If you decide you want to move into Bill Gates’s basement because you believe that you can “live anywhere” can you?
No. Why? Because there is such a thing as private property and the law.”
Go troll somewhere else. Daily KOS would be a good fit for you.
BECAUSE I DON’T CARE THE FUCKING BILL GATES ‘S BASEMENT
& I CAN LIVE ANYWHERE I WANT NO ANYWHERE YOU WANT OK
UNDERSTAND?
& I can quote EXACTLY what you said TOO.
THE WORLD IS OUR HOUSE NOT ONLY YOURS
I DON’T KNOW WHAT IS THE PROBLEM WITH YOU
THE MEXICANS LIVING IN U.S.A WILL RETURN TO MEXICO
WHEN THE WHITE AMERICANS RETURN TO U.S.A.
UNDERSTAND???
MEXICANS IN U.S.A=ALL THE TIME
WHITE AMERICANS IN MEXICO=ALL THE TIME
YOUR FEEDBACK IS USELESS ACCEPT THE REALITY
OPEN YOUR EYES FRIEND
WAKE UP.
MAY BE YOU ARE A LITLE KID YOU KNOW WHAT BYE
I WON’T CHECK THIS SITE AGAIN
GOOD LUCK.
Dumb as a post or just a troll? You decided.
Note that I said “if” you decided you wanted to live in Bill Gates’s basement. I never said you did want to live there.
I know that you cannot win the argument and so does everyone else now. So why don’t you just run along and play under your bridge?
Obviously a troll. This Mike Williams sounds like a socialist tool.

good or bad I’m glad the fact that 10% of us lives there makes so many people mad.
Glad to see we have another mexican without enough self respect to care about how crappy their own country is. Proves the point well I think.
Mexico sucks really bad…that’s a fact…otherwise why do they keep sucking USA’s balls going there to work for them…trying to make themselves in many cultural ways to look more American…why do they desperately state that they are important to US economy, while it is the other way…and the top of all they hate USA and blame them for many of their problems expecting the USA just to help them and to suck their beaner balls…doesn’t that say that that country is instead one of the crappiest in the world?…mexico is just a shitty country…oh they have rich people…but millons of you mexicans are in extreme hunger so wtf is with your politics and with your population??
I had over 100 employees on three shifts working for me and most of the american citizens were not just lazy but not willing to help one another. The Mexican employees not only wanted to work hard but would help anyone that asked for it who ever they may be. When in the break room , I saw american citizens laugh at others about being hungry and not having food to eat ,on the other hand the mexican employees put all the food together and share the food to anyone in need who ever they may be . I do understand that there is a problem of our goverment not being able to take care of all the illegal immigrants health care and they should pay taxes by the way my employees were legal but I also helped them with doing so.
That is a wonderfully off topic comment “Company employer Todd J”. You did read the rules about posting off topic comments right?
That is pretty sad Mexico. You guys must not love your own country let alone your own race. Other people in 3rd world countries stick to their country because they love their country and their race. All you Mexicans want to do is have the easy way out by sucking the United States of America’s balls.
Indeed Mexico really sucks! I am from there. But do not blame the land, Mexico has a beatiful territory. People is the problem here. People is lazy, conformist and stupid. Religion is their main problem, I will apologize in advance about I am going to say: Mexicans believe their beloved God will aid them to save their asses all the time they prefer to stay in Churches waiting for a miracle instead of doing the hard work, that is why they are lazy people and get happy with everything that make them more lazy. I am Mexican I do not like my country, still, I feel like a stranger here, nevertheless I do not like USA but they have better econonomy and culture of positive thinking. I live in Mexico and I earn in dollars. Yes I live like a king!!! yes, that is life about.
Nice post.
united states is a land of immigrants.. theirs a lot of Mexican immigrants so what. all they want is a better future for their children. thats what we mexicans do we hop over fences and invade a country so our children could have a better future in this wonderful country.
Yet again the same old and oh so easily discredited BS from diego. Bank robbers want better lives for themselves and their families too so maybe we should just legalize bank robbery too. Simply wanting a better life is not an excuse for breaking a reasonable law.
You did not even address the point which is that if Mexico did not suck so bad (been there, seen it first hand) there would be no reason to hop the border and come here. But Mexico is a hell hole outside of the carefully patrolled and regulated resort areas. And the reason is none other than the Mexican people who are quite frankly too lazy to make their own country better. So many of them come here, break the law as their first act, steal identities often as their second to get jobs that they could not other wise get and then just keep breaking laws from there on out.
the only thing corrupt in mexico are the cops. i dont know why a lot of people talk a lot of shit about mexico. trying to find a job is what sucks in mexico. thats why theirs a lot of mexican immigrants in the US.
Andres, I do not know where you come from. Maybe it is from Mexico. If you do you are obviously a toady of the government there. To say that the only thing corrupt about Mexico is the cops is dumb. Must not pay too much attention to politicians if that statement comes from your mouth.
Why finding a job in my home country sucks? Well it could be the socialist state that Mexico is does not provide the opportunity. The squatting alone is horrendous and there is no real respect for basic rights like property.
Mexico deserves the shit that gets talked about it because the country is shit. But that does not give people the right or an excuse for breaking US law.
okay first hand been to mexico, it was okay not the best not the worse. Mexicans do come here and act the same make neighborhoods look like slum live like pigs but I will say they’re hard workers. The problem is ANCHOR BABIES just because your baby is born here does not give you the right to stay here, your baby has dual citizenship then. To me The generation that is born american get lazy like the rest of us Americans so I don’t want to hear that all are hard workers, 50% are because they don’t want to risk going back to a country that not only needs education and to free itself from the corrupt churches and Political parties, MEXICO needs to overturn the goverment start fresh, Crack down harder on DRUG CARTELS and such. I am frankly sick of illegal mumbo jumbo. I HAVE NO PROBLEM with coming into this country LEGALLY but when you break the law you break the law. I guess if we get bored of america she should all just move into mexico and demand rights steal people’s identity and mooch off the tax payers(if they have them) I am not racist I am dating a great italian man from milan who came here LEGALLY whose parents did the right thing. BUT this is the USA the land of the free and stupid because we are to stupid and politically correct to stop a bunch of burrito beaner chokers. I say if your PROUD TO BE mexican THEN STAY THERE!!! don’t come here
I am mexican-american and I say keep the good ones and deport the bad ones that come over to form gangs and bring in drugs. There are a lot of mexican-americans that help the united states in many ways some of them represent the U.S and win olympic medals for this great country something that would have never happend for them in mexico so its a win-win for the united states and the immigrant. start small and focus on the people who destroy infrastructure in urban cities with gang-related graffit. Its understandable that many americans feel invaded but go after the trouble makers first there are people who come here for a better life and work really hard for that to happen and there is nothing wrong with that. So the goverment should learn to manage escalating tensions and act! First with the worst of the bunch and then with immigration reform a system that won’t allow criminals to enter the country. Well thats a start I guess… Well anyway God Bless America
and go tacos
LoL still mexican haha
You dumb, ignorant racist bastards this country was founded by immigrants I bet your ancestors were immigrants too op bet they didnt come here legally either learn your history I bet money that your ancestors came from another country
I think it is clear that the ignorant person here is you Jason. You cannot handle the truth.
Jason’s small mind doesn’t see anything wrong with people invading America and corrupting it with their third world beliefs. I left Mexico for a reason. We don’t need the average Mexican here. And we definately don’t need shallow thinkers like Jason.
I do not care where you from we are human beings and we should work together to prosper. I hate racism
Absolutely right Luis! We should all work together to make sure criminals who jump the border get sent back home!
I hate morons that think because they disagree and cannot come up with an argument and therefor scream “racism”.
Poor USA, always thinking you´re the best of all. Once you go to Europe, you notice the difference between recist americans and th rest of the world, that´s the very unique of you gringos, you´re so bigheads. In fact, you´re the ones who produce our crisis, thanks!
Aw, what’s that matter Alejandro? Lost you job picking lettuce in the feilds because American liberals like their European brothers and sisters crashed the economy here? Did you have to run back across the border and deal with the hell hole that is your own country? Poor baby.
But like a normal moron you cannot deal with the facts and resort to name calling because of your low intelligence.
Don’t worry about Alejandro. He’s just a moron. Unfortunately a lot of people in my former home country are morons.
Here the author praises Mexico and the Mexican people but correctly points out that the problem is government corruption and all I have seen is morons like Alejandro attaching him for it.
Stop it! The author is right! Mexico does suck! That is why I worked hard to become a US citizen! Thankfully I got out before it went to Hell completely like it be now.
