Well, I can’t afford products made in the USA so if middle class Americans in Mexico can at least there’s still a market somewhere! /ss

I know most americans think Mexico is just the border towns, tourist meccas, and 3rd world hellholes, but in the larger cities in Mexico, they have malls, that make our malls look like souless flea markets....I’m serious, some of their malls are gorgeous and stunning.
