I'm trying to learn about this issue. It seems to be portrayed as 1) the largest landgrab in history, destroying small communitiees in it's path, and 2) the Illegal alien highway...
Planning a move to San Antonio, so I'd sure like to get to the bottom and understand this issue. Any information or articles on this, please feel free to ping me to them, or direct me to a link. I can ferret through the BS pretty well, but appreciate honest opinions. Is this really about connecting highways and eliminating congestion, or is this making money for the contractor from Spain. Is this the BIG DIG TEXAS STYLE.. Boondoggle.. . ?? I'm trying to understand.
Thanks...
PS. Go Kay.
We need to email her about the MMP, the borders, the tax increase on Perry's desk... and to encourage her to turn up the heat.

I went ahead and added you to my TTC ping list. It's light-to-medium volume, as I tend to post multiple articles over a period of one to several days onto one thread.
Sadly, this thing is going to be built whether anyone likes it or not. This freeway is going to be one in a series that are going to interconnect between Mexico, the US and Canada. It's out of our hands. The "powers to be" are the ones who have plotted out our future and it's just tough if we don't like it. It's globalization! It's going to enhance all the trade agreements. NAFTA, CAFTA, FTAA. This will expedite travel, trade, etc between the "Americas."
