Excellent post!
How come no one mentions Oklahoma?
Good read! I have many Mexican national friends who go back and forth from Texas to Mexico for business reasons. They are filthy rich in Mexico and have proper Visas and such.(have LEGAL access to the US)
It’s nice to read an opinion from someone who knows the reality of life in Mexico.
Too bad this reality will never reach MSM or the stupid liberals who are inciting violent protests against AZ and others who take US laws seriously.
Wow!
Thanks for posting this. I am so anxious for good news on ANYTHING these days, even though it is far away, it is a bit of sunshine. We need some good news before a lot of us just snap LOL. Thing is, with the anxiety levels so high, we need good things to be happening or a lot of people will wind up sick, and that isn’t good!
Freepers, go to the site and read the editorial. Rosenblum is a real creep.
Ping!
Read carefully - the post is actually a comment to an editorial from an American Ex-pat who is now a Mexican citizen.
He is right. Can’t argue with him on this at all.
I wonder what paper he was editor for?
BINGO. I've gotten flamed (not here) for suggesting our main problem with poor school performance was cultural.
Excellent comments. I didn’t bother with the editorial. If it wasn’t posted, it must have been really drenched with liberal stupidity.
He is correct that a successful economy depends on trust, and America is well on the way to the condition of mistrust he describes in Mexico.
Just another aspect of the Mexification of the United States.
I just know its been to long since I’ve vacationed in Arizona.
I wonder where that mountain is. I would be there in a heartbeat, however us gringos cannot own property in Mexico and their immigration policies are a bit difficult if I understand correctly. Some of my friends have gone to Costa Rica.
How difficult is it to gain Mexican citizenship?
“Who cares if it’s illegal. No one here does.”
And that, mi amigo, is one of the great reasons Mexico is the way IT is and the United States is the way IT is.
I wonder if he thought about what he wrote? Disgusts me.
Immigration activists usually claim that opposition to illegal immigration is a form of hatred and racism. There’s actually no hatred involved. Here’s why most Americans oppose illegal immigration:
1) Illegal immigrants raise the crime rate in America.
2) Illegal immigrants increase the motor vehicle accident rate in America. ( I can testify to that after a few harrowing taxi rides in Mexico with drivers who were stunningly reckless even with passengers in their cabs. A high percentage of illegal immigrants are dangerous drivers, no question about it.)
3) Illegal immigrants receive a high level of government benefits from the states and localities and divert money from schools and other priorities while driving up taxes.
4) A high percentage of illegal immigrants, if they become citizens or register to vote illegally, register as Democrats and vote for liberal politicians. These liberals can pass laws that most native-born people strongly oppose, such as the recent monstrous health care law. We have the right to resist a takeover of our country by left-wing socialist politicians because we strongly oppose the laws they vote for.
If you ask immigration advocates whether we should allow an unlimited number of Mexicans to immigrate to the US, most activists would say “yes.” But if you then asked them if we should also allow an unlimited number of Chinese people to immigrate to the US, even as many as 100 million Chinese in the next ten years, I think most of the activists would say no to that idea because it would overcrowd America and overload our infrastructure. So their campaign for unlimited immigration is probably intended primarily for Mexicans and other people from Central America. We don’t hate those people. We just want them to fix the problems in Mexico instead of moving up here and bringing those problems to America.
the fact that about 10% of the Mexican population has moved to the US might account for the demand for workers in Mexico.
