I find this part of the article quite interesting:

” TracFone, which did not return a request for comment, is the U.S. affiliate of America Movil, one of the largest phone service providers in Latin America.

America Movil is one of many business ventures controlled by Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim, currently the world’s richest man, according to Forbes. Slim’s stake in the firm accounts for more than half of his $70 billion net worth.

Slim—who bailed out the New York Times and is often referred to as “Mexico’s Mr. Monopoly”—has visited the White House at least twice, according to visitor logs.”

I knew Carlos Slim was the wealthiest man in Mexico, but wasn’t aware he was the wealthiest man in the World. Makes me wonder with all that Moolah, 70 Bln. dollars just how much influence Mr. Slim has on our open borders policy. Wondering if Mr. Slim is involved in other matters unsaid.

Slim made his money the old-fashioned way in the 3rd world - government imposed monopoly. This is the problem with wealthy 3rd worlders. They’re not self-made in an American way.
