To my mind, Mexico is the example of the “Last Colony” on earth. Its less a nation than it is a Colony, or “Colonia” adminstered by an Oligarchy of wealthy Spaniards. I’ve visited Mexico many times and in trying to learn about it, I’ve found studying it to be like peeling back the layers of an Onion. At the core is a cabal of about 100 families who own, operate and control all of everything worth controling in Mexico. Banking, Oil & Gas Industry, Silver mining, Ranching and Farming, etc.

It is truly fascinating.

If you do the same onion-peeling analysis on just about every Latin American country [unless it's been destroyed by full-blown Socialism], I believe you'll find the same multi-family oligarchy owning and controlling just about everything. It's the one common trait that they all inherited from the Spanish colonial period. The only country's colonial legacy that's worse than Spain is: France [Haiti].

When I was in the Army 50 years ago one of my very best friends was Mexican-American. Really handsome, nice guy. He showed us a picture of about 20 young, beautiful girls around a fountain in Mexico—all of them were his cousins. He claimed his grandmother owned half of Mexico City.

He was from California. His father made him join the Army to thank America. They were very rich.

Which describes the current version of Russia (Putingrad), China, Venezuela, Argentina, Brazil or a dozen other former communist countries.

And America is starting to look more like this every year.
