Mexico is a crime ridden third world country. What do you think it's citizens are going to do if you open up the border?
How many millions of people do you think the US can suddenly take on? And you don't think they'll bring crime with them?

More labor, bigger economy, police and courts and jails would scale up >1%, just as if a bunch of people moved here. We currently run at just shy of 1% in prison. If we admit a million, 10k criminals wouldn’t even be noticed.
