Money sent "overseas" is hardly going into Mexico. Unless there is an ocean at the border I don't know about.:D

Fact is billions of dollars have been sent over to Mexico by illegal aliens to their families in Mexico. Sending money over there is easily done.

so where are they getting money from?

In some areas there aren't border guards on either side. So getting past the border guards as your reason doesn't mean much.

Smuggling people out is done for various reasons may it be hoping for a better life or job, part of the drug trade, prostitution, etc. Just as smuggling out contraband, drugs, guns or what have you. When you smuggle someone out it means doing something illegal hoping not to get caught by the authorities, eg the border guards. It'd be silly to smuggle in a perfectly good legal alien with no priors or convictions and has the papers to gain entry into the U.S. To smuggle means an illicit activity in this case.

Yes, monies are being sent to Mexico by illegal aliens for their families in Mexico. Nothing new about that.

Wouldn't that be down there? Mexico is south of America. Most sent by legal immigrants. Check my link from before.

Nothing new about immigrants from everywhere sending money to their families in other countries. Not just Mexico. Most is sent by legal immigrants.

I already said Mexico. Monies are sent to their family by both illegal and legal immigrants. It is still billions of dollars sent to their family by illegal immigrants.

The most of the money sent is stll sent by immigrants that are here legally.
Not denying that illegal immigrants also send money back home. They couldn't if Americans weren't hiring them until they got a work Visa and legal status though, could they?

Billions of dollars sent back home....something you laughed at from the beginning.

Highly unlikely that more money from legal/authorized immigrants was sent home than illegal/unauthorized immigrants.

The largest wave of immigration in history from a single country to the United States has come to a standstill. After four decades that brought 12 million current immigrants—most of whom came illegally—the net migration flow from Mexico to the United States has stopped and may have reversed, according to a new analysis of government data from both countries by the Pew Hispanic Center, a project of the Pew Research Center.

Net Migration from Mexico Falls to Zero

It was wave after wave after wave of illegal immigrants entering the United States that built up the Hispanic population and the group that sent money home billions of dollars worth.

in other word.... you don't know for sure if more money was sent by illegals than legal immigrants.

you know what's laughable? this so-called "billions" is a paltry amount compared to amount that American citizens and our politicians including your beloved Republicans send to offshore accounts. Yes Democrats too but majority of arrests and imprisonments are Republican figures.

Wonder how long it will take before the courts are filled with cases because some cop has pulled someone who is a legal citizen but looks Hispanic over without cause just to check their immigration status?

That's not at all what the AZ law says! First of all let me educate you. Cops can't pull people over without probable cause for a traffic stop such as breaking the law by speeding, equipment issues, etc... Then after they legally pull them over and IF they suspect that they may be here illegally (can't seem to produce a license or can't speak English) they can ask for their immigration papers.

It is called secondary law.

It is unlawfully to drive without driver license.

There are a lot of reasons that Mexico doesn't have a problem with illegal immigration. No one wants to go there. They are all trying to get somewhere else.:D

Totally incorrect. Mexico is a wonderful place to live. Great culture, great climate and beautiful coasts. Tons of money to be made there to if you can score a permit from the corrupt government.

Even tiny Costa Rica has illegal immigration problems.
