Thanks for posting this. My estimate is this KC port will be considered Mexican soil. That's how low some so called Americans will try to abase this nation. All to bring in Chinese crap via Mexico.
You know I am taking a lot of heat on this thread, but there are at least a few others that can see how worked up some folks have gotten over what is really nothing at all.
Take you. You seem to think that this facility in Kansas City, of all places, is intended to facilitate the import of "chinese crap" via Mexico.
Well, You don't want Chinese crap, don't buy it then. That's freedom for you.
But that's not really my point. My point is that this KC facility is being proposed to make if easier for Mexicans to Buy "American crap".
This is primarily an EXPORT facility. That's what pre-clearance is all about.
Think about it.
There is no need for a Mexican customs facility in Kansas City to facilitate import of Mexican good into the US. That's the function of US CUSTOMS, Einstein. This Mexican Customs facility is to facilitate our own exports to Mexico.
US Customs will set up in Mexico, not in Kansas City, to pre-clear Mexican cargo into the US.
