I don't see a happy ending for this story... for Mexico or its neighbors.

It's hard to see a happy ending for Mexico, period. As the article points out, there is a vast cultural divide in Mexico, one that can't be overstated, and one that can't be sustained forever. The effect is manifest in so many ways, a corrosive, all-pervasive corruption that saps the national spirit is just one among others. The root of the problem is that they never finished their revolution: in the end, they just ran out bullets and wound up pretty much where they began, twelve years later.
