Since many many American companies, individuals and farmers hire Mexicans to do things for less money than Americans would require and be legally entitled to, there are thousands of jobs in America that Mexicans know are there should they get into the USA either legally or illegally. Since their families are often poor and need a better life Mexicans continue and will continue to attempt to get into the USA by whatever means necessary. No matter how high a wall the USA builds along the border, Mexicans will still try and get into the USA for a better life for themselves and their families.
