SAN FRANCISCO (AFP) – Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger suggested California could ease its crowded prison system by sending thousands of undocumented inmates to specially built jails in Mexico.

Speaking to reporters at the Sacramento Press Club, Schwarzenegger said California could ease its strained finances by a billion dollars if 20,000 illegal immigrants currently held in the state were housed across the border.

That would be mostly likely a good detriment for illegals to go California, but then Texas, Arizona and New Mexico would then get the brunt of them, would they not? So it is a suggestion that would solve California's prison problem, but then what about the other bordering States above Mexico:-5:-5???

It would work for any border town in my opinion they are here illegally to begin with send them back cheaper to house in Mexico then the States.

Why does America (not just California) allow even a single alien without legal permission to be on American soil to stay within its borders for so much as a day? I see lots of disgust amounting to hatred expressed in their direction but no effective action on the part of any level of government. What am I failing to grasp? What reason exists for this reluctance to act?
