Mexico, thank you for your honesty and courage. Americans have been there. That is, where poor Mexican families are now. During the dust bowl, Oklahoma farm families became poor and abused migrant workers in California. It was not by choice. The conditions were horrendous.
Today, many Mexican families try to make a living. Some desire citizenship, some just want to work and send money home. After being victimized by so-called free-trade agreements, unions, and government corruption, the Democrats use the Mexican people as political pawns while corporations reorganize toward the "global economy".
Black America is awakening to the betrayal and admitting they were lied to. The so-called "Economic Crisis" has allowed an infrastructure to emerge that will place the average worker on the bottom rung forever.
Mexico has a Constitution that is being destroyed faster than our own. Mexico is the 14th largest independent nation in the world. As migrants leave home for U.S. jobs, they will actually lose some rights enjoyed under their own Constitution.
The Mexican people should stand and fight for their country and we, ours. The union Astroturf in Arizona is blatantly obvious. The Mexican people are being victimized by the deceit and the lies of the current regime. They are in the same boat as the Tea Party yet, corporate media propaganda deceives the nations. The immigration stand-off is destroying Mexico's NAFTA-dependant economy. The Gulf Coast Oil Spill destroyed the tourism trade in Mexico. International travel to Mexico was down 9 percent in
2009 before the oil spill due to fears over violence.
Do you Remember when teachers, public employees, Planned Parenthood, NPR and PBS crashed the stock market, wiped out half of our 401Ks, took trillions in TARP money, gave themselves billions in bonuses, and paid no taxes? Yeah.. Me Neither.
