I asked you first to tell me how Mexicans help this country flow. Please enlighten me.
Don Bes answered it for me. Theyre willing to work for lower wages - some of them work in the country picking the crops people eat

Traditionally, Mexicans are hard workers. I do not have a problem with the Mexicans who LEGALLY emmigrate from Mexico, but I can not stand those chumps that immigrate here ILLEGALLY.
Cant blame them really. They all want to live the american dream

A lot of Mexicans live in my area because there are a great many apple orchards around here, they are called migrant workers and travel all over the US sometimes.
And afterall, theyre just helping this country's economy grow bigger and hence help the country flow everyday. Now give me your examples Andy

I see your point and I understand how you feel about foreign people (sometimes illegal) people coming to your country but I just think some comments you made before about mexicans were just out of line

    Maybe, but they actually harm the economy some by working for less. They do the work under the table and for less than minimum wage, which is, once again, NOT good for this country.
    You're joking, right? Illegal immigrants are the basis on which the American economy is built. They do the jobs which Americans will not do and accept wages for that work that Americans would not. It is the immigrants who allow the America to have it's bloated middle class.

    I think that's a bit of a stab at those blue-collar, middle class factory workers who in reality are the people who help our economy flow.

    I disagree, they bring the economy down, allowing corporations like Wal Mart to pay 5.25 an hour.

    Examples of the negative side of the Mexican population?

    In my area, sort of a deep Northwest suburb to the Metropolis of DC and Baltimore, there are many Mexicans who work at Orchards and other small labor jobs. In one county, Franklin county to be specific, there are rising numbers of Mexicans because of the great number of Orchards in the area. Towns such as Chambersburg have recently had a rise in crime due to Mexican gang activity. Furthermore, in a high school where my mom teaches, Mexicans have been causing trouble in the school, not only being a burden for law enforcement but also educators, considering many do not speak English that well. Due to President Bush's No Child Left Behind Act, teachers have to bendover backwards for students who are not doing well, including hispanics, who require extra help. Not to mention the epidemic of no-shows at the school, as some are just not coming all together. What are they doing out of school? God knows. In a city called Frederick the Mexican population is on the rise, and the problems I listed above are here in this area as well. Funny example is the the town mall in Frederick has a high number of loitering in and around the mall, not doing anything in particular. Can't we find jobs people?

    Disclaimer: I'm not saying that all Mexicans are bad because many are very good people. It's just that some are not doing much to merit their existence here, and only causing problems. Those are the negatives that I am speaking of. Again, not all Mexicans are like this and some make a difference.

    Interesting. Are these people mexicans or chicanos?
