As President Obama welcomed President Calderon of Mexico to the White House for a state visit yesterday, we were reminded of the many little known benefits the Wall Street reform bill will have for middle class families. Every year, millions of working Americans send financial assistance back to their families in Mexico. In 2006, Mexico received over $23 billion in remittances, the vast majority of which came from the United States...

As illegal immigration increases, how much more was sent in 2009?

A friend told me that BP makes a profit of $6 billion per quarter.  She thought it was outrageous.  That's kinda close to how much goes to Mexico.

How much of the $23 billion in remittances is from folks on some kind of welfare in the US?  How much of that 'profit' comes from taxpayer dollars?

What of payments by illegals to families in other nations? 

Why isn't Obama keen on eliminating waste from welfare programs at home? 

Liberals want to go after $6 billion from BP, but seem to ignore the $23 billion to Mexico that may represent profits from welfare, drugs...
