Mexico's biggest problem is that the govt must rely on Pemex profits to run the govt because the underground economy is vast and un-taxable. Consequently, Pemex doexn't have the capital to develop/fulfill Mexico's future energy needs.

And who's going to invest in Mexico and take the risk of their investment being nationalized?

The only people for whome that would be viable, would be people who would be willing and able to kill Fox and his whole ruling elite if they even thought that Fox was considering it.
