[FITZ]

Your life is so bad, that you would risk everything to come to the land of freedom.

But they don't have enough patriotism to make Mexico a land of freedom? What possible excuse is there for conditions to change so drastically once you cross the Mexican border?

[Anitius Severinus Boethius]

Horrible corruption and intimidation of "peasants" by generations of Mexican (socialist) governments. We are a rare people, us Americans, in that we did overthrow the shackles of tyranny. Our fighting spirit and belief that we could be free is a rarity in this world throughout history. And that is why we are admired by the downtrodden of the world and the shining City on the Hill that the world's poor long to be near.
