it's a strange group of people.
hard to wrap your brain around because, unless you're a psychopath, you have some feelings for other people.
the pri does not.
no doubt in my mind that it is evil. how else do you describe a country where there is little social cohesiveness? no mechanisms for self improvement. whenever someone or something raises its head, it gets shot down, literally.
the government of mexico is a terrorist government. against its own people.
and, it's coming back, the pri, -- after an interlude of el presidente fox's "democracy".
I guess the Mexican people were not so impressed with Fox's "democracy" because all he's really tried to do is get rid of them. It must feel quite strange that every time your president visits a foreign country, he's whealing and dealing to get that country to take you and your paisanos.
Fox had one big chance to do something and that was right after he took office. He decided instead to try to prove his machismo by ordering the USA around --- forgot the big problems. He should have immediately done something about the situation in Ciudad Juarez --- but he let that big mess just slide. He should have immediately addressed the kidnapping for ransom issue in Mexico City and elsewhere -- but he let that one slide. Drug shipments to the USA are every bit as high as they were under PRI --- that's another issue he chose not to address. He wasted his term with matricula cards and whole enchiladas --- and Mexico is sliding down fast.
