MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexico’s armed forces are taking control of the capital’s main airport, and the government plans to give the military control of nearly a dozen more across the country as the president takes aim at corruption and mismanagement.

President Andrés Manuel López Obrador has been setting the armed forces to a wide range of nontraditional tasks since he was elected in 2018, creating concerns about the separation of the military from civilian life.

Well, Mexico's problem really is that for over a century it was a heavy handed socialist state. That created mass corruption and inefficiency in everything.
 
So Obama sends Biden to Ukraine because of one corrupt prosecutor because we were sending them money yet we send money to Mexico and they are far more corrupt then one guy in Ukraine so why isn't Biden sending Harris down there to withhold money?

Any liberals able to explain this?
 
The degree to which Mexico is gravitating towards China and away from America should concern you.

They are for instance not interested in our sanctions on Russia.

Obviously the Failed Elite Class never saw that coming.....open borders and all the resulting money that flows to Mexico re remittances human traffic and drugs was supposed to prevent that.

They take the dollars we make and spread around but they dont respect us.....they dont want to be like us.
 
NAFTA and Mexican Immigration


Peasant agriculture has been eviscerated by the arrival of agri-business and the lifting of restrictions on the sale of peasant land. Industrial employment has been eviscerated by the closure of hundreds of plants unable to compete with the transnationals under the new free-for-all trade regime. The response of peasants and workers thus displaced has been clear and consistent: they have headed north in ever greater absolute numbers. Before NAFTA, undocumented Mexican immigration came mainly from four or five Mexican states and a limited number of mostly rural municipalities. Since NAFTA, migrants have originated in all Mexican states, practically all municipalities, and cities as well as towns and villages. A number of formerly vibrant places are now ghost towns, all their able adults having gone abroad; about one-third of all Mexican municipalities have lost population during the last decade, some by half or more. The counterpart of this hollowing out of the Mexican countryside is the growth of the Mexican migrant population in the U.S., much of it undocumented.


American media commentators and policy pundits attack the migrants themselves for their presence and greater visibility. They are dubbed “law-breakers” and accused of “taking jobs away from Americans.” But this is just another exercise in victim-blaming. Those truly responsible for the situation are the authorities who embraced free markets as a cure for all economic and social ills.
