We allow 1,000,000 immigrants every year, legally, with all the rights of a citizen except the vote. Thats every year, year in and year out.

And of that million, Mexico has pride of place as having the largest quota of any single nation by far.

“Xenophobic” is a dishonest way to describe a country that is the most open to immigration of any country on this earth.

When Mexico opens her borders to unlimited Honduran immigration, and starts encouraging Guatemalans to come to work in Mexican factories, I’ll believe they believe in the advantages of open borders. Until then I’ll know its purely political and purely dishonest.

Can you imagine what Mexico would look like today if it enacted the same reforms that Commie China and India did 15 years ago? Why doesn’t some one ask Fox why he was unable to open his economy to foreign investment (see China and India) and provide a higher standard of living to the people that elected him. He has so much promise but ended up a complete failure. Too bad for Mexico and America, not to mention central America.

The question the Leprechaun didn’t ask when Fox was waxing on about how his grandfather moved from Cincinnati to Mexico a century ago to find opportunity is “Why can’t Americans (or any other nationality) do that today?”
