US/Mexican border


Topaz

Recommended Posts

Pres. Calderon of Mexico says that he violence along the US/Mexican border is parting of the US deporting illegal immigrants that have been convicted of a crime. He says most of the Mexicans ended up joining the drug cartels. The US deported almost 400,000,2010-11, most Mexicans. Since its really dangerous to travel in Mexico and the drug cartels are all over that country, I wonder what the US is going to doing about that situation next door to it? The US jails are so full and money is getting tighter for the state governments that they have to let some prisoners go. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-latin-america-15399071

Is there oil in Mexico?

I've read that within 10 years Mexico's oil will be gone. I guess the biggest industry now are the foreign corporations going there to manufacture their products, at least, until the corruptions and killings starts to interfer with the companies. It's a wonder the drug cartels hasn't tried what the mob did in NA, pay them money for security.

Mexico has more than dwindling oil supplies to worry about.

The year of 2009 will not be remembered as a particularly great year for any economy. The countries are looking over last year’s results and for some, these are terrifying. Mexico’s economy is one that suffered massively, especially in the tourism sector. Rudolfo Elizondo, the Mexican Secretary of Tourism, has revealed that the 2009 loss reached a shocking 1.1 billion dollars.

Mexico has yet another issue to solve, which proves to drive tourism away on a large scale – drug violence. Since 2006, when Mexico’s President Felipe Calderon took power, more than 18,000 drug-related killings were recorded. Drug cartels are at war and unless the government takes immediate and powerful action, the country’s reputation as a safe and ideal holiday destination will be damaged completely.
