I have met many illegal from Mexico. They are common in Houston. Most are hard working people who want a better life for their family.

Texas spends a lot of money educating them and giving them free health care. We figure we might as well help them. If we donâ€™t educate them, more will turn to crime. And just maybe they might take their knowledge back to Mexico.

I donâ€™t blame them from coming over here. I wish they didnâ€™t have too. If we really want to stop them, we need to help them fix their country.

Things are improving in Mexico. There is an actual middle class in Mexico City. There are also a large number of Americans settling in Mexico, do to a cheaper cost of living.
