Here are some of the truths I referred to, perhaps lost in skimming the article for something to disagree with. As I said, I disagree with Tobar's conclusion. I also believe that our borders should be secure, employers of illegal aliens punished, and illegal aliens deported. That doesn't conflict with the truth in the article. Quote:

Whether they come here to make some money in construction and go back to Mexico (but never do), or come here to make money selling black tar heroin and return to Mexico (but never do), it's all about what Tobar calls social mobility, often illiterate peasants and urban poor becoming middle class or even wealthy - an improbable if not impossible goal in Mexico.
