The Mexican elite have no intention of improving conditions over there but in some ways it seems this book could be good. Mexicans in the little villages will hear of American type wages ---to them $2.00 an hour sounds great but they aren't prepared for American costs of living. They don't realize they'll be sleeping on floors, living 15 people to a small apartment. Many have intentions of supporting their families back in Mexico but absence doesn't make the heart grow fonder, usually after a few months or couple years, they find new lovers and quit their families.

Dittos to that--this book might be useful in stemming some of the tide of lawbreaking immigration. At the very least, it might save some lives lost to the coyotes.
