[QUOTE=Sobotnik;43310124]You do know that part of the reason why America is a first world economy is because they can keep hiring (often illegally) Mexican workers at competitive rates right?

Unskilled labour is pretty useful to have around. The wonders of industrialization and mechanization means that a large number of jobs really don't need skills, but just raw labour and maybe a few hours of training at the most.

Plus a lot of Mexicans already have experience in many industries and trades and the migratory ones tend to also be the "self-made" guys. They start up small businesses, constantly strive to improve themselves and make more money, and help to keep the American giant humming.

If the border was as strictly controlled as people wished it to be, America would be socially and economically stagnant plus not to mention loosing even more ground to China than it already is.[/QUOTE]

That's not even partly why.

15 percent of the country obviously equals the other 85.
