207. I understand that...
but the truth is that illegal immigration just allows Mexico to get a pass on its own problems and inequalites by increasing our inequalities and labor problems. I don't think illegal immigrants view themselves as being exploited, considering they are making more than they would elsewhere, but just because they don't have the perspective or "big picture" of how it is hurting others doesn't mean it's ok.

The solution is not illegal immigration. In fact, it only makes the problems in Mexico and here worse.
