Fantastic, a total win-win.
I have spent a fair amount of time in Mexico, and one thing that most people don’t realize is that Mexico is pretty depopulated, especially in the south (Oaxaca, etc.). Many people went north to the US for work, crime drove out others, the miserable educational level resulting from the constant strikes of the teachers’ union (an SEIU union, btw) and their burning of tires and shutting down the towns drove out still more...so some of these places have nobody over the age of 8 or under the age of 70 living in them anymore. So resettling Central Americans can only be a benefit to Mexico.
So we can ship more of our blue collar jobs there? LOSE - LOSE - LOSE

Yes. The Mexican “government”, such as it is, has been very successful at exporting its poverty to the USA thanks to many “Manchurian Candidates” in our government. Going back to well before Vicente Fox and his “candidate”, GWB, until now with the obscene illegal flow rate. A disgusting situation to be kind....with corrupt politicians on both sides of the border promoting the situation.
Certainly Guatemalans and Hondurans are a better cultural and social fit for Mexico than they are for the United States. Then again, the difference in wealth, education, and crime rate between Mexico and many Central American countries is almost as great as the disparity between the US and Mexico.
So the mesicans are motivated to keep the central americans from getting in on their good deal?
Just commenting, most of the employees at Prosperity Bank branches, even in Oklahoma, are some kind of latino. Doesn’t make me feel secure. Whites are not all honest but most have more and different culture.
Having driven from Texas to Nicaragua in the 1960s, because of it’s shape, driving across Mexico is almost like driving across the US. Getting from Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala is no walk in the park. I also doubt the roads are so much better than 50 years ago, or that there are much more of them. The people who make it to our border are not likely to be the weak ones.
.so some of these places have nobody over the age of 8 or under the age of 70 living in them anymore.”
In other words nobody lives there anymore.
Interesting how crime and gangs, like locust, depopulate an area after they consume what is valuable and then move on to the next target. Sort of like Democrat voters and the policies they support.
