FRs I don’t have the tech stuff to do this. But American citizens are getting screwed in Mexico by the gangs and government see if you can find some examples and post em
I was in a small border town in the Baha sitting at an outdoor café. I watched a Mexican cop stopping American licensed cars and demanding fifty bucks or, “I arrest you.” He was scaring the snot out of them. When I related this to the family I was staying with, one of them told me, approximately, “Americans that bring nice cars here are idiots. Any cop who likes your car can stop you and take it.” (Incidentally, at the time if you wanted to rent a car on the American side, you had to promise that you wouldn’t take it into Mexico. When I asked why the clerk said, “’Cause they can just take it.”)
The family I was staying with told me how some of them had gotten good jobs. They paid bribes. The best jobs were with the Electric company, the telephone company and the oil industry. The bribes cost accordingly.
I’m pretty sure this amusement park is financed by a drug cartel, which is why it took troops to (temporarily) stop its construction.
In the 1980s-1990s, when I was reading some of the magazines about living well in cheap places, Mexico was one of the top spots, as were some other places in Central America.
Guess that worked out then, but wouldn’t now.
