only your second link, which does not seem like a credible source, breaks it down between illegal and legal immigrants. it says illegal immigrants are a approximately 1/3 of the source of outflowing funds. i didnt know wire transfers had little check boxes for "illegal" and "legal" for the benefit of statistics. the other link discusses those practicing this activity as coming from all over south and central america. i have met plenty of Filipinos and Africans who do this as well.
i think an even bigger issue is our american corporations sending jobs(money) out of the country, regardless of our economy.
