This is really just hysteria. Whether you like it or not, trade with Mexico affects our economy.

I think the person who needs to grow up here is you.

Please pick a reason why this shouldn’t happen because the corruption stuff you are spewing now has nothing to do with opening the borders. I thought it was high way safety? Illegal problems really have little to do with commerce crossing the borders, which presently occurs daily — except instead for the greasing of hands of teamster unions to transport these goods on the US side, these shipping companies will bring the goods directly to the business who purchased them. Their trucks will have to pass rigorous inspections and secure insurance through a US insurance carrier. Their drivers meeting the same DOT standards our drivers do, and they must understand and speak English.

This is a two way street by the way. We allow Mexico to transport their goods to our companies, and Mexico allows the US to transport our goods to their companies.
This is great news for trade.

Your post pretty much reflects what I previousy stated — you want all trade with “corrupt” Mexico to cease because it will at some point be associated with criminal activity.

“Hysteria because Mexican companies are involved is just not warranted”

It IS warranted just because Mexican companies are involved. I would feel much better if it was any other country in the world that was sending their drivers here instead of mexico. Everyone needs to hide their wives and kids because the funeral business is going to get busy.

One of us is stating reactionary lies. I said nothing about eliminating trade with Mexico. Controlling the border before punching more holes in it WILL SAVE AMERICAN LIVES. You are against this. Your points are petty materialism, laws be damned. Your later posts have reverted to either childish insults (Clinton?) or flat out lies (suspend all trade with Mexico). If I wanted to converse with someone as delusional and obtuse as you appear to be I’d be logged on at the DU. Had I known I would have just ignored you.
