This IS the problem. We have a corrupt government just to the south that feeds both parties to keep them from doing the right thing.
Mexico is a land with many natural resources, tropical beaches, and a lot of potential. But it has been governed by corrupt politicians since its beginning. People flee because there is no opportunity except for the white, Spanish and French based families.
The cops are corrupt. The military is corrupt. The people are starved.
no, Spanish and Lebanese; and some corrupt, lucky or hardworking guys from other ethnical groups. I have to admit it the Lebanese played very well their cards, Carlos "Slim" Salim Helu alone is the wealthiest Mexican, but all the french inmigrants I have meet are at best uppermiddle class (in Mexican standards). dunno, I agree with the idea of closing borders as a way of political pressure atleast for the approval of the ecomical reforms the Mexican congress owe us.
