Not what I meant. Your going in-assumption was there must be something big wrong with Mexico. Not precisely the same as thinking Mexicans are shit. though not actually so far from it either....
The number 1 reason for immigration is simple--wages much higher in USA. Workers here can afford remittances home that are very significant in Mexican economy. So what's wrong with Mexico is low wages.
Of course, there are lots of immigrants, and reasons #2-100.
