No, no, no!!

The US has been a pain in the asses of the Mexican people since the 1840s, when we took parts of it to make our southwest.

This was followed by interventions all through latin America. The disrespect shown to latin peoples has been marked and continuous.

The US does not need to invade Mexico. The US should leave the Mexican people in peace.

You want to fix the "drug problem" legalize the crap, which takes the profit out of it.

PeMex? The Cantarell field is located in Mexico. It's their oil.

Illegal aliens? Do you understand who hires illegals and why they do it?

The Europeans don't anywhere the amount of savings required to buy US t-bills as the Chinese. We sure cannot "transfer debt". Chinese interests hold that debt and like it. So far anyhow.

We will be able to then tax the goods from china limiting the potential for corporations to reap profits of their GREED.

*sigh*

US business interests like doing business in China. Chinese workers are "well disciplined". They work long hours. They work hard. They don't go on strike.

Do you understand what WTO means? Do you understand that the US is treaty bound to honor WTO agreements?

Be a lot easier to make the US more business friendly. I ain't holding my breath for the next two years regarding THAT.
