We have investors here who would build that infrastructure FOR fox, if there were something in it for them. But with mexico not allowing foreign ownership, no one is going to build over there.

I guess they've never heard of capitalism.

....no one is going to build over there.

I wouldn't want to build down there. There is too much corruption. Every 5 minutes someone would be knocking on your door with their hand out looking for a "piece off". The police and the military are the biggest offenders.

Nothing is going to get done until they clean up the corruption there - and that won't happen until the 12th of never.

President Bush plans to direct $30 million to poor areas of Mexico over the next year

Nonsense! This money will go into the hands of corrupt Mexican government officials our president foolishly HOPES will distribute that money to poor areas. It will never get there. It will end up in the private bank accounts of those Mexican government officials.

The Mexican government is not going to allow the U.S. government to make direct investment in poor areas of Mexico. Those senior Mexican officials are going to get their greedy, thieving hands on it and that will be the end of it.
