As U.S. Job Opportunities Fade, More Mexicans Look Homeward – WSJ.com
LOS ANGELES — During a decade in the U.S., Mexican immigrant Linex Rivera gave birth to three daughters, whose American citizenship offered her hope of staying in the land of opportunity. But with job prospects drying up for her husband, Ms. Rivera last week joined a phalanx of compatriots at the Mexican consulate in Los Angeles inquiring about obtaining Mexican citizenship for their children.
“We are thinking of returning to Mexico and want our daughters to have all the rights of Mexican nationals,” says Ms. Rivera, whose children are nine, five and three.
After a historic immigration wave, many Mexicans and other Latin Americans are preparing to return to their homelands amid the deepening recession here. Mexicans who reside in the U.S. sought Mexican citizenship for their U.S.-born children in record numbers last year.

You Mexicans are a bunch of Freeloading, Illegal want to be, you Mexicans have mastered the art of Fogery, Fraud, Identny Theft. You are Stealing Jobs, Education, Medical Treatment from the United States. What have you Mexicans ever invented? I mean besides a Taco, or a Burrito. I’m sure there isn’t enough combined IQ in Mexico to claim that much of an invention. So go back to Mexico and eat your Dogs and Cats.
