Let me try this again. The only legal way for a Mexican national to engage in intra-U.S. hauling is by holding the proper visa. There is no treaty allowing otherwise.

The Kansas City Council last year approved a $2.5 million loan to SmartPort to build the 26,000-square foot customs facility on city-owned land in the West Bottoms east of Liberty Street and mostly south of Interstate 670.

Nonprofit SmartPort would lease the site from the city and repay the loan over 10 years with user fees paid by international shippers.

So its a loan. Corsi is again a little messy with the facts.

...legal...there's that word again...

We've hundreds of thousands of illegals working here in NC. A couple of days ago, four of them just wrecked a company truck out on Hwy 64 near my old house, nearly killing a bunch of commuters.

The Highway Patrol let them go with a ticket. The local newsies id'ed them as illegals.

...a provision in NAFTA allows Mexican citizens to own and operate trucking companies in the US, which is fine...and the currently allowed provisions of NAFTA II (which are on the books) allow Mexican trucks and drivers to operate within the US already...they're coming, all right, legally.

The holdup was that US safety rules were disallowed for these trucks, and some people complained about that. Imagine!
