Not accurate, the Mexican .gov prints pamphlets, paid for by you and I via "foreign aid" that gives instructions on how to defeat our border security and how to send $$ home. Without remittances, the Mexican .gov would collapse. Mexico receives more $$ via remittance then tourism.

($9 billion dollars were previously sent back annually, according to a September 25, 2002 NPR report). That figure equals what Mexico earns annually from tourism."

"What does the immense success of "La Gran Marcha" mean to Mexicanos and other Latinos? It simply means that we now have the numbers, the political will and the organizational skills to direct our own destinies and
