“Why does Mexico suck so much?”
The real answer is socialism.
Most Americans don’t realize how radically socialist Mexico was during the 20th century. Trotsky fled to Mexico from the Soviet Union, because it was viewed as the next greatest socialist experiment. Benito Mussolini was named after Benito Juarez by his communist father for the same reason. The Mexican radicals actually waged a war against Christianity, the Cristero War.
The Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) ran Mexico as an effectively one party state for 75 years. The current President is back from that party, and in this year’s election, it is looking like an even further left extremist (Obrador, or AMLO as he is called) could win. A lot of power is concentrated into the office of the Presidency there.
