Ooops, title comment my bad, they want the subsidies from the Mexican Govt, or they'll migrate here.
Can the cows get drivers licenses in California?

This is a testament to the destructive effects of our domestic farm subsidies. They should be angry.

I'm no expert on the big picture of agriculture...but I do know a (legal) Mexican national
I worked with said that the NAFTA/free trade changes had ravaged the business climate
for Mexican farms/ranches.
As for USA agricultural subsidies: have kept some of my relatives in new
cars, pickups and farm equipment for more than a few decades.
But for the US guvmint, they'd have long ago failed due to their ineptitude as farmers.

Will the Mexicans be driving their short-horned, spotted elk over the US border during hunting season?

Is our southern border so pourous that even cows can make it through? Holy cow.

has been demanding the Mexican government control milk prices to no avail, Solis said. Poor campesinos --- they haven't caught on yet how deliberate this was, it was all meant to destroy them. The Mexican government never thought NAFTA would help them --- Salinas --- the corrupt president of Mexico who signed NAFTA spoke of how 25 million campesinos had to be gotten rid of. They knew full well the millions of farmers would be destroyed but that was the whole point of NAFTA.

Looks like we are going to be shooting ourselves some steaks on this side of the border.
