I've read this before but it's like comparing apples to oranges. There is nothing to gain from illegally emigrating to Mexico, a poor nation. Mexico will have different laws regarding immigration for many reasons. 1) the nation is already a basket case and doesn't need any extra dead weight coming in 2) the government is corrupt and wants to maintain authoratative control 3) Mexico is a poor nation and has much more to gain from investments 4) because the nation is poor nobody is running to become a citizen their unless they have money to retire and live an easy life or are criminals hiding, the latter which they don't want 5) those laws are most likely not even enforced if you're brining any kind of money into their country. Nobody is going to stop you if you're traveling into Mexico aside from corrupt cops, but you will get stopped trying to re-enter the US.
The Mexican government is corrupt and needy, so those laws make perfect sense considering the circumstances.
