How would feel about having a Chinese government as a neighbor? Or a Chavez type government?
The answer lies not with allowing Mexico to fail (it needs to though), or importing Mexico"s citizens to America at our citizen's expense, but something else.
Annexing Mexico would probably work though as it would allow for a controlled failure of the government while at the same time keep the bad guys at arms length.
It’s great that Carlos Slim has popped up like a fat prairie dog. He gives lie to Mexico being a poor country. Mexico is a rich country with poor wealth distribution WHICH IS NOT MY PROBLEM!!!
Agreed; I pinged you to another thread about thoughts on discussing solutions.
I absolutely agree, of course. I'm pinging you to another thread where several others are scratching our collective heads to think of what to do...."beating the reps" with letters/faxes of course...but, perhaps we can think of something more....
Thanx for the ping - it seems the “answer” will be as complex as the problem but I can assure you that general amnesty is NOT the “answer” nor should it be part of the solution.
I completely agree. We’ve got to do more than just pound them with faxes and emails, though.
As I have stated before, this is a complex issue and one I thought my elected officials were handling with our best interest in mind - I was wrong but at least I know better.
As a nation, Americans have decided we want our boarder enforced and our laws enforced first.
Quite a few want enforcement separated from any and immigration legislation - I am one.
Keep the pressure up by all legal means at our disposal to make that happens.

Our leaders are making it our problem, so it is time to clean house!
Vigilantly!
yep a politician is either an AMERICA FIRSTER
or a has been he takeS his pick.... if he doesn’t He gets ousted... out out onto the street with an opportunity to work in insurance for example....
or some other HONORABLE line of work so he’ll have and opportunity to climb aboard the clue train heading toward an understanding of what it takes to work an 8 hour day in order to put food on the table.....
if he gets his mind right he can run for re-election...
do dah
Foreign policy gone berserk.
Bush is now organizing The White House Conference on the Americas —— to better the lives of everyone else at the expense of US taxpayers.
The plan is obviously to impose well-worn brands of Central American socialism and gov’t corruption on the US..........not the other way around.
They take our jobs, flood our country with criminals, and illiterates who bring every kind of disease imaginable into America.....and we are supposed to applaud and say
“merge us with Mexico and Canada. “
One prime example: the US Totalization Agreement between the US and Mexico was signed in June 2004, and is awaiting the president’s signature. The Agreement would ship the US Social Security system to Mexico.
Looks like our prez has learned a lot from these marauding “neighbors” of ours. He apparently has been doing all this secretly-—acting NOT like the sworn leader of a constututional democracy, but like the generalissimo of a corrupt South American junta.
Get ready for camouflage-clad federales patrolling our streets with ammo clips and shoulder holsters——aimed at those Americans who won’t buckle under.
and there are many others, happening every week. Events and policies and decisions... but you already know this and the question was rhetorical. right?
