I live next to the border, and why the illegals are coming here to work is that there is no work in Mexico. The big American corporate companies have gobbled up the small farmer and he cannot compete. He has to feed his family so he will do what he has to do. We as Americans should act more responsibly. We need to fix NAFTA and stop Corporate take over of small countries. We have done the same to our farmers in this country!
