Remittances to Mexico Surge 9.2 pct in August
 
Remittances to Mexico Surge 9.2 pct in August
Mexico received $2.13 billion in remittances in August, a figure that was up 9.2 percent on an annual basis in dollars and marked the largest increase in the past 12 months, the Bank of Mexico said.
The number beat analysts' consensus estimates of a 2.9 percent rise in remittances in August, figures from Banamex, a unit of U.S.-based Citigroup, show.
The remittances received in August were the largest since May 2010 in nominal terms, Spanish banking giant BBVA said in a report.
The average remittance and the total number of remittances sent by Mexicans living abroad rose 4.4 percent and 4.6 percent, respectively.
The average remittance rose to $340, a figure exceeded in recent years only in February and March 2009, and in March of this year, BBVA said.
August is traditionally a strong month for remittances because of the start of the school year in Mexico, BBVA, which has a research unit that focuses on migration, said.
Employment among Hispanics grew at an annualized rate of 1.7 percent, or slightly more than 160,000 jobs, in August in the United States, marking the best performance of the year, BBVA said.
Remittances to Mexico grew at an annualized rate of 4.9 percent during the first eight months of 2011.
The economic slowdown in the United States, however, could lead "some of the sectors in which Mexican migrants work to start showing negative signs," affecting the flow of remittances, BBVA said.
Remittances should grow 4.7 percent in dollar terms in 2011, BBVA said.

I wonder why Boehner, Cantor and Mitch McConell are not reaching for some of those funds to balance our budget. No one will even tax or make a 'sur' charge on it. Man, look at your utility bills and see all the new fees.
Can't for get the banks, BofA is looking for $5 per mo on a debit card purchase.
One day the government or the banks may own all of the homes, even those that are fully paid for.

And they know that so much of it is derived from the underground economy too. Just because some of it IS taxed by this outlaw regime doesn't mean it isn't originating from unlawful sources. This is what really gripes my ass about this whole illegal immigrant business. The regime legitimizes, no...."fences" the proceeds through this remittance scheme. Then they defend it by saying that so much of it is contributing to our economy because the illegals ARE paying taxes on a portion of it. The taxing agencies are conspiring with the fencing operation of the world banks that are laundering this underground economy money.

Where do these numbers come from? How they can tell all this money is going to Mexico? And who is it going to? Isn't that private information? Conventional wisdom says that it goes to relatives. But it is just as likely that it goes to the criminals responsible for shipping illegals into the US. Illegal immigration is a criminal enterprise and organized crime collects from the people it moves when they get a job. And the people the illegals leave behind are there to make sure that organized crime can collect.

While it's private to the extent that the information cannot be obtained by a citizen request, the government is allowed to gather data for reporting purposes. The IRS discloses quite a bit of this data on their website. It's just so boring that nobody wants to read it
