I just read the brand new state department warning for Americans traveling to Mexico. It is absolute bureaucratic nonsense. It is long and verbose and is just about 100% useless.
So almost tongue-in-cheek let me suggest another approach: Mexico has now degenerated into chaos. Many are now openly calling it a failed state. Governmental corruption in the police and military is rampant in Mexico. This corruption has begun spreading to America.
One appropriate reaction by the U.S. Government would be to simply close the international border between El Paso, Texas and Juarez, Mexico.
The immediate reaction to this suggestion by almost everyone would be, “Oh Good Heavens, NO!! This simply is not possible or realistic. It might upset commerce or even the market. The rich campaign contributors simply wouldn't tolerate this.”
So just like with deregulation and the non-existent re-regulation of Wall Street, rather than us having the strength of character to do what protects America and our people, the U.S. government is once again trembling and cowering. Again we see the American government bowing down and kissing the feet of the the gods of greed and capitalism.
