They want American benefits, material and otherwise, with Mexican identity/flag. If the Tooth Fairy waved her magic wand and overnight Aztlan came into being...Gringos gone, Mexicans in charge of the Southwest, (which never was Mexico), how long before they'd start complaining that they don't know how to run/make/do/repair anything? And demanding that the US do it all....and pay reparations, to boot.
They don't get it. They came, illegally, to the US for the American dream, not the Mexican nightmare...but now they want the Mexican nightmare all over the place. Out of their minds.
Right you are.
Greed and idiocy seem to know no bounds these days.

At my husband's former job a few years ago, a Mexican co-worker boasted to him that the LATINOS were taking over. He was really proud of this fact. My husband calmly said to him, "well who's going to pay all the welfare when that happens". He was mad but it shut him up.
You nailed it.
Actually, it reminds me of urban liberals moving to the countryside. But that is another rant...
