I think we should TAKE Mexico down to Panama, TAKE.
Those jokers have no idea how to run the fantastic real estate they have. Knock off all the corrupt politicians and drug kingpins and make the whole region an honest tourist, medical, education destination. The local population will thrive.
That's 100% on the mark, FRiend! Now is the time to finish the job started at San Jacinto. Mexico needs to become a US territory and its people American subjects. Maybe in a few hundred years, they might be worthy of the vote and gain citizenship after they learn to speak English as well as absorbing American culture and values.
A lot of their real estate is not that fantastic. I’ve lived and traveled there. Overpopulation doesn’t help either.
Hmmm, maybe that is why Petraeus wants the same thing. I love their mountains. No problems with drug imports then either.
