LAST EDITED ON Aug-12-08 AT 00:19AM (MST)[p]Those darn Mexicans ugh! What will we do? Who should we blame? To think that they still exist in the United States after we conquered parts of their northern border.
It angers me that they come here illegally just because what few manufacturing jobs they had were off-shored, we have a large shared unprotected border, their economy/personal future sucks, and they can make 10 times more in annual salary here than in Mexico. Yep, no doubt illegal immigrants suck.
The real insult about those darn Mexicans, they speak another language, not even their own language but a language from Spain. Does Spain even exist? No Really! That is to say I don't know any Spaniards, I don't know anybody that knows any Spaniards. What in THE hell is that all about?
The solution to this issue is simple...buy Mexican products physically made in Mexico. I know this idea may seem right off the map to many, but it is a simple fact. There are more millionaires in Mexico per capita than there are in the United States. We just don't see those Mexicans standing around the outside edge of the local Home Depot parking lot.
If you think the gap between rich and poor in this country is outta whack, Mexico is 10 times deeper in economic disparity.
Why the recent influx of so many illegals just in the last 12 years? Well, it can all be tied directly to the Clinton Administration and NAFTA accompanied by rising overhead costs to employers, an ever-shrinking dollar, and corporate interests which sways politician to vote down border security funding.
It surprises me that political pundits have not hammered that point relentlessly against the dems during this election, but it's probably because Hillary did not win the nomination. And most American's don't really understand the why's or the how's when it comes to NAFTA.
Due to NAFTA's lack of enforcement of a level global playing field as was initially intended. We now have a major global immigration problem. Here at home we have always had problems with our northern and southern borders, but not the heavy influx that we have seen in the last decade or so. The fact is that a majority of manufacturing plants that did exist in Mexico were off-shored to China a decade ago.
Meanwhile, Guatemalans have entered illegally into Mexico and currently make up a large proportion of the agricultural and low wage unskilled jobs. Unlike our age demographic 80% of the Mexican population are ages 18-30.
What we are seeing are plain and simple economic refugees with a few nefariouos characters thrown into the mix. Canada our neighbors to the north have a very stable economy, as such we do not the same problems with them as in the South. The big question is why should we support China instead of our southern neighbors Mexico?
If illegal immigration was costing business instead of increasing profits, we would see border action immediately. What does that tell you about our government and who really controls policy? Just follow the money...........
I say restore the Mexican economy, document the undocumented and in a decade we could reduce border crossings by 90%. As for the prison population, well let's leave that for another post.
I recently bought a short block motor, sold by GM, produced in Mexico "Hecho en Mexico" stamped right on the block. I figured both places could use the money.
Or just keep shopping at Walmart, don't buy Hecho en Mexico goods, keep borrowing huge sums of money from the Chinese, let your government abide by a flawed and unenforceable economic agreement, and keep complaining about the problem. Corporate America like Kraft Meat Packing Co., Computer/Home Appliance Manufaturers, Restaurant Industries, Lawn/Garden Industries, Agri-business, Construction Industries, and others will absolutely love you for it. Entiendes Amigo?
Those darn illegal Mexicans! Day ar all bery bery bad! Unless you own stock in the #1 purchasor of tomatos in the world like Taco Bell, 2 Tacos and a medium sized drink only .99 cents! Then those illegal Mexicans are bery bery good!
