Comments on: Borders are not about political lines http://www.hispanicmpr.com Providing you essential information on America's largest minority Sun, 6 Jul 2008 00:03:38 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.3 By: Jack http://www.hispanicmpr.com/resources/articles/borders-are-not-about-political-lines/#comment-866875 Jack Mon, 07 Apr 2008 20:19:31 +0000 http://www.hispanicmpr.com/resources/articles/borders-are-not-about-political-lines/#comment-866875 One of the things that always amazes and sickens me is that some US citizen Hispanics claim to be talking for all US citizen Hispanics, which is false. Most Hispanics in the US want the laws enforced and illegal aliens to stay in their own country where they belong (not invade and ruin other countries because their country is so screwed up). The sad part is that those Hispanics who side with law breakers are giving a very bad name (by association) to all US citizen Hispanics and giving all Americans the wrong impression "that all US citizens Hispanics side with criminal invaders, otherwise known as poor little workers who think they have a right to go anywhere they damn well please no matter what the cost and impacts to others). The solutions are not going to be found by imposing the sickness of Mexico onto the US, but by helping Mexico fix its own ill health - which starts by getting rid of its endemic corruption that saturates both its government and social constructs. More US citizens Hispanics need to speak out against the invasion of their country (America) and against Mexico - or they need to consider moving to Mexico if they prefer to support that country more than their own. America deserves respect from all its citizens, and Hispanics are no exception.

What works for the US does not necessarily work for Mexico. NAFTA was and is a diaster. Mexico voted for it. But yet Mexico will not enact provisions which would prevent the flooding of its market of cheap corn and wheat. Obviously, those top Mexican politicans are getting kickbacks from the corporations. But Mexico is so corrupt and non-democratic that after 100years still can't get their act together to provide desecent social services for its people in terms of democracy, social income and industries. Heck, even the state run oil company is in dire straights now days, literally going bankrupt because of being sipphoned of its revenue by the corrupt politicians. Don't blame the US for Mexico's problems. What does it take for Mexico to get its act together and help its own people.?? NAFTA was a balnket solution for the 3 nations involved.

Mexicans have no right to come to this country without our permission. The U.S. is only protecting its self interests by building a fence and trying to control immigration, as is its right under international law. Mr. Osio more appropriately should have asked what does Mexico proposed to do about its situation? It would appear the U.S. is treated a wrong doer by defending its sovereignty, just as every nation in the world is entitle to. God help us and the Mexican people when we have leaders with such a convoluted way of thinking. Mexico is responsible for its own plight.

But I also believe it is time to start empowering the peoples of Mexico so that they may have the freedom to create the Life they desire and require. I am talking about Self empowerment about their own well BEing.

However, allowing them to have the same freedoms and wages that we is not fix the problem. Communism was an attempt at leveling out the field so that everyone had income, housing, food, etc. and it proved to be a failure. People need to work diligently within the countries they live in to improve conditions THERE, not run from them. If everyone runs, nothing will improve. It takes, guts, gumption and perserverance to change the historical cycle of poverty. Until people attempt to make changes in their own countries and in their own situations they can't expect that running from the problem will make it go away.

Thank you for this, Patrick. Those figures and the disparity make for a very effective presentation of the issue. The national dialogue needs more voices like yours.
