Nowhere did I claim that illegals are the majority of people using the Mexican pesos. What I am claiming is that having businesses except Mexican pesos as payment makes it easier for people from Mexico that enter the country illegally. I think the reason is obvious but maybe not.

According to the OP's article, you can get pesos exchanged at a bank already so whatever effect there is on the ease of getting here is probably negligible. So when republicans whine about things like this, it's difficult to not to ascribe other motives like xenophobia. and more difficult to take the complaints seriously.

And if the 'illegals' aren't a majority of the people using these programs, why the hell do you care? Should 'legal' people not be allowed to do something because it makes things easier for 'illegals'(another dubious assertion; why would people who want to appear legal run around flashing pesos?)?
