It's strange because the fee will only be charged to pedestrians who cross at certain border points and stay longer than 7 days or go there to work.

Seems like part of the reason might be to protect certain Mexican jobs? It might not be a bad idea if it works and thereby helps to keep Mexicans in Mexico.
