Mexico Gets The Gadgets - Border States Get The Shaft

For Any And All Conserve-ative Constitutionalists:

It was recently announced in several online media sources that the Mexican government, in their "partnership" with the U.S. in securing the nation's southern border with Mexico, has fired all their existing border agents, and hired new university educated border guards now armed with state of the art technology in order to work in concert with the U.S. on security issues.

I guess this public relations announcement was meant also to engender favorable response in the United States for Mexico's efforts to address the historically porous southern borders, which have progressively become worse each and every decade with respect to the security and crime that has occurred in the American border states.

Interesting, it appears the United States is now using foreign governments now in order to "stimulate" the economies of Silicon Valley. This announcement failed to mention that the American government under [George Bush entered into an initiative of literally billions in "foreign aid" to Mexico in order to address the border situation.

In other words, it was the American people and taxpayers that picked up the tab for Mexico's new agents university training and high tech gadgetry. Globally socializing now border security with other nations for Silicon Valley's corporate welfare and profit.  Or using the taxpayers and increasing the inflationary taxes and deficit to feed its now favored industries - the Silicon Valley telecom and security gadget industy.  I guess the contracts on the Iraq War aren't paying enough to get those Wall Street numbers where they would like them to be for those private investors though publicly funded for their next campaigns.

The main use of these new agents, since they will be at their posts primarily at the official ports of entry, appears to be in order to collect Mexico's VAT taxes for purchases being brought back from the U.S. across their borders for their citizens purchases at the local Wal-Marts in the border towns, in order to seize more of those U.S. dollars for Mexico's treasury.

And in order to possibly catch the stoned marijuana dealers that are stupid enough to attempt to cross Mexico's borders with the proceeds from their latest run. Trained dog sniffers came along with this gift from the U.S., it appears.

These measures can hardly be meant to address the true security threats and criminal activity that primarily endangers those Americans living in the border states from the drug cartels and criminal auto theft rings that cross those borders literally at will. Since they hardly wait politely in line for the security checks at the official ports of entry - but instead use the over 500 miles of open desert that is totally unsecured.

Which is also the port of entry for most of the illegal immigrants brought in by the human smuggling rings that also operate cross borders. With maps printed by the local Mexican governments in order to so do.

And although mention is made, as per Ms. Clinton's errant assessments and comments, with respect to also these measures intended to stop the smuggling of guns from the U.S. into Mexico - as any who have lived in a border state for any length of time is well aware, the machine guns and heavy artillery that those cartels obtain don't come primarily from the U.S. at all, but through their own southern borders with South America.

So, it appears in this public relations press release an attempt to silence those that have been calling for true border security at our southern borders now, especially eight years after 9/11 and with the increases annually in that amount of both illegal immigrants, and criminal activity that pours over those borders on a daily basis.  Which has, of course, now contributed (along with the increased property and auto insurance rates, and predatory loan practices of unregulated California lenders who sold most of those "creative" junk feed escalating loans in the West) to the high rate of jobless and homeless now in the border states in being the states with the highest rates of foreclosure during this housing crisis bar none.

With the border state residents in the inflationary taxes which will result in these foreign aid bills for Mexico actually resulting in paying for their continued victimization and abuse.  We are a bankrupted nation for all intents and purposes, but still handing out foreign aid like candy for other countries, while our government officials negligently and beligerantly at this point leave America's own borders vulnerable and unsecured - their primary function and duty.

 Mexico got the gadgets while the Americans living in the border states continue to get the shaft.

I wonder how many more will be stripped of their lives and property until Washington finally gets the message.  Is this part of the "we all must sacrifice" agenda here.  Sacrificing the lives and property of the legal Americans living in the border states for this global socialism agenda and to appease the Mexican government in continuing to provide employment for their citizens at the cost of the livelihoods of Americans?  And no less pick up the tab for it, endure the six hour emergency room waits for lawful citizens treatment, and smile or feel that Americans have somehow done their patriotic duty?

It appears Washington does have a problem with the definition of the type of patriotism the founders were also speaking of, in addition to being able to read the provisions of both their jobs, and legal limits with respect to U.S. citizens.  And that foreigners were not Americans until achieving citizenship status, and going through an application process, medical exam, learning the language toward truly assimilating.  And cutting their ties to their former homes of origin, even if those countries afforded dual citizenship.  This country did not, only allegiance to it.

Or perhaps is it their intent to cut loose the border states eventually, therefore leaving more discretionary tax revenue for those in the East to distribute to their Wall Street banking benefactors in the process?  Mexico's form of government is not at all similar to ours, nor its own Constitution with respect to foreigners found unlawfully in their country.  Nor anyone suspected of criminal activity upon a Mexican citizen.

It appears more and more the border state residents have become strangers in a strange land - their own country.

Attention All Americans: More Insourcing, Outsourcing To Come

Much this past week has been in the U.S. press with respect to the GM "joint venture."  (The only other story being that of the crime at the Holocaust Museum, by the 89 year old American World War II enlistee, then also reported to be a former "Nazi Officer" according to the fiction writers in the U.S. press nowadays, rather than an apparently senile man who, at 89, somehow still had the mental capability and ability to operate his own website, since arthritis must not be plaguing him as much as my elderly post 80 parents, since my 87 year old Dad has a hard time doing so much as a search since he is and was not of the computer generation).

U.S.A., Inc. purchased, of course, a hefty share of General Motors, courtesy of the American taxpayers and shareholders, whereupon Mr. Obama then essentially fired a great many American citizens in Detroit, and sold out the smaller individual American bond holders to the UAW's larger interest. 

Now it appears the company is going to "formally" file bankruptcy and go through the bankruptcy process. 

Of course this bewilders me, since it does seem that perhaps this would have been the first step, so that all the details would be then available to the public as a "public" corporation, but it seems it is only the public's activities that seem to be under scrutiny as of late.

I wonder why the American people might be dissatisfied and distrust their government increasingly more and more each year?  Hmmmm....

Below is a response I made to a claimed citizen journalist poster (since those sites now have also been infiltrated by many on stimulus grant monies as "educational" sites it appears, along with the 100 million that was given to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, now also somehow worthy as also an "educational", rather than "corporate commercial" U.S. corporation, who contributed their "take" on the situation and simply believed that selling off the gas guzzlers in GM, Ford and Chrysler's lines will be the "cure" to what ails GM. 

I doubt, as with the banks, anything at all truly ails GM, who has low wage plants in China and Mexico now since they've moved essentially offshore also, it is just another tool to use to facilitate global government, amass maximum profit due to those countries socialized and communist governments, and continue to merge our economy with that of the "global community," no matter what the sacrifices and costs to the American people. 

Apparently, their homes and jobs are not enough, and we are bringing out the flag more and more and using the American people's love for their country now even as a weapon against them.

I hope any and all Americans left in the border states have been forewarned due to that sale. 

Because as one who watched that situation explode since the Reagan years, and if all goes as it appears planned, come September with another push for the amnesty while still promoting open borders with Mexico, it will be sure to raise the ire of a good many of those living in the border states. 

More than even those who have been their victims.

The response:

No, the Hummers will simply be bought and driven by the drug cartels members after they start being manufactured at the GM plant in Mexico. And eventually then, Arizona, Mexico and California will "officially" become propety again of Mexico through the drug cartel ownerships and profits, and corporate control of the faces sitting on the various state legislations, whose members are and have been indirectly on the receiving end of the drug cartel and open borders gravy train in one way or another.

Of course, it is all the Americans fault due to the "insatiable need" for drugs by the "people" in THIS country which Ms. Clinton trashed and spoke about to the Mexican governent (when a good 2/3's those with addiction problems started while minors due to their target market). 

It couldn't be in order to legalize hard and addictive drugs in order to go in partnership with the Mexican and Chinese governments so that the pharmaceutical industry can cash in on this untapped resource, would it? 

I wonder in such event how many new cases of AIDS there would be, or how much the street crimes would then increase in order for those mostly kids to maintain their habits? 

Of course, at least that would also stimulate the security and "privatized" jail industry booming now in this country, which is one way to get the kids off the streets.  Make a profit off simply the addicted users for their incarcerations to make those high lease payments and private costs, and the legal industry in the pool of clients with all those drug profits to fleece, since the illegal sales to minors then would not cease. 

Those kid consumers are an untapped source of revenue, and simply waste those allowances (from those parents still flush now enough to give it) on CDs and video games. 

This way that hash and smack will then primarily come in tamper-proof packaging, except for those in the inner city who will have to settle for the lesser quality, but lethal, street variety.

If you can't beat 'em, why not join 'em? 

We can't win in a "no win" Middle East war, and with open borders, the "War on Drugs" has simply been a farce.  So lets just cash in the chips on bin Laden AND the Mexican drug cartels since apparently neither war is winnable.  We've been in Iraq now for eight years and counting, and with open borders since the Mexican-American war. 

But our "common defense" high tech security and gadget industry utilized priimarily against the American people since America has dissolved into simply a tourist trap for foreigners is truly booming.  California's pleading poverty, while Silicon Valley must be bursting at the seams at this point.  Another propaganda spin. 

The mid to upper level corporate hotel chains catering to tourists and foreigners haven't been heard from as of yet in the major metropolitan cities seeking their welfare.   Those California resorts too are flush, as the AIG sabbatical proved.

Of course, as one who has experience with this situation up close and personally, this situation continues to be due to the federal and state governments which have done absolutely nothing about our border problem since the 60's except use it as a political weapon and for political advantage by both mainstream parties, and the drugs simply have gotten much more addictive and lethal that continue to be sold in front of the local high schools and middle schools in the border states by the year.

And the Chinese GM plant and one in Mexico are those which will be retained as their most profitable and most likely will be kept as simply a joint venture now among U.S.A., Inc., the GM major shareholders (UAW "corporate" and other union pensions primarily), and the UAW Corporation itself, so in essence Obama and our Congress simply used GM in order to entrench our government (as part owner now) more and more with the Chinese and Mexican governments, who most likey will be replacing those American union members which were fired.  A "buy-out" in essence skirting around SEC disclosure laws and regulations, as it were.   Like the bank "bailouts."

And whose largest imports are not those sold on the stock exchange.

Our government is run now by the bankers and global government "state actor" corporations and "associations" of huge national and multi-national industries, including the legal industry, that once hallowed "profession" who also have truly lost their way in some of the "new industries" due to the voluminous unconstitutional bills they have had a hand in writing for their own future incomes and their protected interests - the ones who funded their campaigns, and then and now are simply turning around and presenting their bill for their contributions during the 2008 election. 

What better way to globally merge auto production, and then skim the American shareholders of their investments and retirements in the process?

We need room for all the foreigner invaders who are going to hit our shores real soon from both those countries, in addition to the ones already here that we are pushing to legalize from all reports come September - despite the objections and outrage of the American people and victims living in the border states for these trade agreements, including apparently actual people now more valued for their commercial worth to the global community and these corporate industries at this point for their profit and gain.

And AIG is a London based insurer - so for the first time in history, the American people are now holding the debts for a global corporation, in order to also merge our country and its economy more and more with that of the world, rather than protect our own.

Unbelieveable at this point the utter unawareness of a great many of the American people of what this foreshadows.

Hey, Congress and the Obama Administration just handed out more than 100 million stimulus monies to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce (which lobbies against really the Americans public for more laws for their welfare on behalf of their foreign global interests and their outsourced employees in order to fatten their pocketbooks), of course while Americans in the border states continue to face loss of their lives and property for the Chamber's agenda and benefit. 

Now they have been deemed an "educational" institution, rather than a corporate "trade" organization.  We are not only redefining and burning the Constitution, but the English language now in this country in favor of what?  That definition isn't even Spanish.

Mr. Obama is simply the "used car salesman" that was picked to seal the deal, and bury our Constitution and sovereign America it appears forever, and since January clearly has been on a global road trip without stop continuing to sell the agenda to the American people wrapped, of all things, in Lincoln and the American flag.

The Pig Industry Revolts: Swine Flu Now Politically Correct H1N1 Virus

It appears in our not simply nationally politically correct society but now also "globally" politically correct, spokesmen for the World Health Organization have now  temporarily renamed the Swine Flu virus by its clinical name, Influenza A (H1N1).  The United States Department of Homeland Security is following now in lock step.

It seems that there were some concerns and proof that the pork industry was having difficulty getting "this little piggy to market," due to now the psychological connections between the virus and the carrier.  Except the World Heath Organization has also now qualified its stance on just whether or not pigs ARE the actual carriers.

Or just how it is transmitted between pigs and humans, although as a virus primarily attacking the respiratory system there is absolutely not a shred of evidence to suggest that ingesting or eating pork is connected.  Unlike the e coli virus which has been proven can be transmitted by ingestion of  both raw infected eggs and poultry.

Here are some other animals and insects who have been connected, fairly or not, to human disease:

dogs, cats, bats, skunks, raccoons - rabies

cows - "hoof and mouth," "Mad Cow" disease

ticks - Lyme disease

mosquitoes - West Nile, yellow fever, malaria

chickens,eggs - ecoli

tuna, shellfish - mercury poisoning

apes, monkeys - HIV

The swine, unfortunately, also has that carryover bad rap in other cultures and some religious connections to overcome as far back as biblical times due to both allegorical connections and dietary prohibitions, and its propensity in times past to be a carrier of disease before the refrigerator and freezer were invented.

It seems the pig family is now suffering from unfair discrimination.

Since 10,000 times the amount of lives have been lost due to the open Southwest borders in Ms. Napolitano's former home state, this former Arizonan wishes she would have been so "Johnny on the spot" protecting Arizonans eight long years ago after 9/11 and prior to the now Mexican drug wars and kidnappings there.  They appear to be still conducting business as usual.

A suggestion was made by one of the directors of the WHO that maybe a contest should be run in order to rename the virus to give it a less scientific, and more commercially accepted identifier within the non-Latin speaking, scientifically challenged portion of the population.

I came up with several:

Hog Native

Hemispheric Navigational (globally transferred)

Hispanic Neutral (originating in Mexico, affecting anyone)

or how about:

The HeiNie Virus (you know, as in "backside")

USDA and WHO:  Are those politically correct?

Maybe we should just call it "Global Economy Meltdown Sydrome"  (GEMS).  That surely is a psychological boost for the pigs, supermarket and people.

I think personally I just might fast.

Here is the link on the New York Times "politically correct" article:

Swine Flu Pandemonium

Throughout the news the American people are now being deluged with the news that there is an "epidemic" of swine flu with the Center for Disease Control under the Department of Homeland Security issuing bulletins and warnings now almost by the hour.

Interesting, that just as the heat was being turned up on this Department due to its activities last week due to the mass protests and demonstrations held throughout the nation with the "right wing" extremists memorandums targeting U.S. citizens due to their political ideology, a "swine flu" epidemic originating in Mexico now is the top story on most local mainstream news media.

In 2006-2007 there were 47 flu-related deaths in the U.S. of children due to the usual and normal seasonal outbreaks of flu in this country.  No true figures are kept, apparently, at the national level for adult cases.  So far, less than two dozen confirmed deaths have been attributed to this Mexican originated strain.  However, the World Health Organization has now upgraded this to a global threat, based upon those 20 deaths.  Huh?

This is also the same strain that circulated back in the 70's during the last economic crisis in this country and has been in  existence since that time, apparently.  What other health conditions were present in those who have died thus far, I would also hope would be eventually revealed - since it appears this strain has so far been far less deadly than the average flu seasons of the past, and the media circus now going on truly a little over the top in comparison.

The month of April actually is the end of flu season historically in this country, with most cases during the winter and early spring months.  Here's the graph of the actual flu season historically in this country for 2008-2009:

http://www.google.org/flutrends/

There was an update that stated now that this flu season has been the worst for "regular flu," with over 1,200 deaths - however, from the last information I obtained from CDC they don't even keep track of the deaths of adults from the flu, since there also can be contributory factors for many since it is the young and elderly that are mostly the victims due to their lesser immune systems.  Many who had this swine flu the last go around in the 70's and 80's most likely would still be immuned, since the flu virus has so many different strains in and of itself.

I wonder if such "terrorist" tactics and measures by this Department, as with its "right wing extremist" memorandum, would be reduced if the Department actually did its job and initiated adequate border security controls in this country with respect to the crossing of borders by foreigners? 

After all, in Great Britain dogs are quarantined for 12 months in order that they be checked for diseases in order to protect the animal population there.

In this country, we give free Visa passes, and I wonder if the disease HIV would have ever reached our shores if the quarantine measures for immigration in this country were as strict as they are for the animals in Great Britain, or even what they were during the 1920's and 1930's, when America had its largest influx of European immigrants?

Nice segway, media.  Are you wearing masks in the newsroom?

Americans FED UP Over Border Issue

Recently, another writer expressed the frustration of many Americans due to the failure of our federal government to perform it's primary function, securing our borders and also addressing the enormous and massive amounts of illegal immigrants in this country, especially now in light of our economic condition.  He set forth his reasons and the article may be seen at:

http://www.americanconservativedaily.com/2009/04/americans-fed-up-with-politicians-who-refuse-to-enforce-the-law/

But I have some in addition, that only a border state resident at this point would be fully aware that I would like to contribute, and below is a copy of my Letter to the Editor of the publication which originally ran the opinion article:

Dear Editor:

I read with interest the opinion column of John Lilipop with respect to the illegal immigrant and border situation.  As a former 45 year Arizonan now a political refugee in another state due to this problem, and the costs it had progressively had on me and my family personally, I would like to add a few more items which many in the border states are FED UP with:

FED up that the U.S. is providing billions of dollars now to the government of Mexico in order to purportedly "fight" their own civil war against the drug cartel members;

FED up that Hillary Clinton blamed America for the access to guns and ammunition that these cartel members have been able to obtain, when it is more than likely that  most of those arms are being smuggled into the country either through South America, or are being allowed through Mexican customs by their own government officials (however if the fencing was done, such stockpiles of arms would not then be able to be smuggled as readily through also the over 700 miles of open desert bordering Mexico);

FED up that the American taxpayers are providing three Black Hawk helicopters to basically protect the American corporate interests in Mexico who have outsourced American labor, including those in the auto industry;

FED up that the lives of the American citizens now are viewed as no more than collateral damage for U.S. appeasement policies and corporate interests;

FED up that the historic corruption of the Mexican government as many Americans who have traveled and visited Mexico frequently are aware has also been whitewashed by our media, and the U.S. officials;

FED up that Mexico is being portrayed as a "poor" country, when in fact it is one of the richest countries due to both its oil holdings, and the drug trade which it has backhandedly supported for many, many years for Americanos dollars;

FED up that the media continues to be silent about the fact that in Mexico, non-citizens are not allowed to hold land or any property real property outright, nor are they allowed to participate in the political process of Mexico in any manner and to violate this law results in immediate deportation, WITHOUT hearing;

FED up with the lack of disclosure of the fact that if Americans had ever organized to stage the protests that the Mexican illegals have in this country, all Americans would either have been shot, or arrested and sent to Mexican prisons forthwith;

FED up with the lack of disclosure of the fact that there have been many Americans from the border states who have languished in Mexican prisons for years without trials, with their friends and family then charged sums in order to so much as visit their loved ones, over trumped up charges which instances have also gone unmentioned in the media;

FED up that instead of doing their Constitutional duty and protecting American lives and property, the U.S. government continues to promote "globalism" in order to convince Americans that Mexico's "democracy" and government is similar to ours;

FED up that the lives of children and young women and the number of American lives which have been lost due to the open borders situation continues to be downplayed and/or withheld from the public, while the number of lives lost due to the drug cartel wars, announced now at over 6,000, has been severely inflated in order to gain the foreign aid promised by the U.S. to Mexico in Merida;

FED up that our children are being actively marketed to in front of local high school and middle schools within yards of the "Drug Free" zones by those same cartel member distributors during lunch and before and after school;

FED up that in the border states at many times during the year the hospital emergency rooms are full of illegals with case of the flu resulting sometimes in 4-5 hour waits for Americans in order for they or their families to receive treatment, and are given preference over Americans for such care due to the federal statute that reimburses these hospitals at the American citizens expense, while many Americans can now no longer afford themselves to get insurance or visit a doctor due to crushing tax burdens;

FED up that the U.S. now is becoming more and more like Mexico's two class system;

FED up that the jobs that these illegal immigrants are taking in many sectors are not simply "jobs Americans don't want," but were and are jobs that our youth, military, construction workers and those  the lawful Mexican-Americans of the past formerly held;

FED up that this is being portrayed as a "racial" issue, when it is an American vs. non-American issue at it's core;

FED up that the illegal immigrant community has gained a voice in our Congress through taxpayer paid organizations that now lobby on the American citizens' dime for "foreigner" rights equal to and even over those of the lawful citizens at both the federal and state levels for grant monies and their legal fees, which is progressively bankrupting the lawful citizens in the process, and adding to our national debt on behalf of those who do not wish in any manner to truly make America their home;

FED up that while many in the illegal population may be gainfully employed in this country, in addition there are a great number who supplement their incomes with either drug trafficking, or theft of American citizen's property, including their identities, cars and other personal property;

FED up with the Catholic communities support for the "rights" also of illegal immigrants enmass in this country, while neglecting to mention that the Pope himself has a fortress wall around his own country in order to secure it, and which neither has made or given any indication of it's degree of support in whether or not the Church and/or members personally would be willing to "sponsor" many of these illegals until achieving citizenship as a demonstration of their commitment to their religious, political and personal agendas;

FED up that Janet Napolitano, Mr. Obama's chosen Secretary of Homeland Security and former Governor of Arizona, is now using the bulk of the stimulus monies in order to buy full body scanners at U.S. airports in order to further invade the rights and privacy of American citizens, while continuing to support open borders - which support actually has lead to further increasing the danger to her fellow countrymen in Arizona's lives and property, and which end result is now this escalating situation and border war due to her failure to truly address the severity of the border situation during her term as Arizona's Governor;

FED up that unless and until something is done relatively soon in order to effectively secure and fence our borders, more Americans lives will be taken, made homeless, and we quite clearly could lose the American Southwest in the not so distant future if the drug cartels profits continue, and they gain more and more strength in number and support;

And finally,

FED up with fellow Americans who continue to support open borders and massive immigration to the detriment of the lives and property of their fellow countrymen in the border states, which negative impact is and has been spreading throughout the country.

Earth to Hillary: Build The Fence and They Won't Come

It was reported by the mainstream media that Hillary Clinton had met with President Calderon of Mexico for about an hour today in preparation for the scheduled trip of Barack Obama and Janet Napolitano with the President within the next several weeks.

In press interviews carried across the nation, Ms. Clinton accepted U.S. responsibility for the "insatiable" appetite of the American people for Mexico's largest and most profitable export - hard core and addictive drugs marketed throughout the U.S. by the Mexican drug cartels.  Mr. Calderon has been waging war on the drug cartels since his assumption of office, and the battles rage on both in Mexico and now on the U.S. side of the border.

Such a statement to me as an ex-Arizonan who left after more than 20 years living with the crime in both the drug trafficking, and property thefts due to those open borders as a fellow countryman  who was victimized on several occasions, and who personally saw the drug dealers which hung around the local schools marketing their wares to young, impressionable kids to increase their market base and entrap a new generation, some for life with their wares, the word "offended" doesn't even begin to describe it my reaction.

Nor that the sole blame for the increased arsenals with which these drug cartels are equipped are the fault of the United States.  Such weaponry more than likely is primarily coming from South America than the U.S.  In Mexico, foreign travelers are prohibited from bringing any guns into the country.  It's pretty difficult in this country anymore to obtain such a stockpile, especially of the type of weaponry it appears favored by those cartel members.

Several months ago, a border agent was killed on the Mexico/U.S. border by some illegal crossers attempting to cross in the desert.  There were no guns or bombs involved.  They simply used their pickup truck to run him over.

If this country has an "insatiable" need for Mexico's drugs, it's only due to ongoing federal negligence in fencing and securing our borders since the Mexican American War.  The "need" is due to the fact that they are addictive drugs, and the segment of the population most often approached are the young in order to build that market base.  Once addicted you've almost got a customer for life.

I do agree that that it is partially the responsibility of the United States, in that respect Ms. Clinton is correct.  But for a entirely different reason.  By failing to secure America's borders and our federal government's continuing negligence in this respect, Washington has been in collusion with the drug dealers in promoting this "free trade." And in violation of it's Constitution in it's failure to "provide for the common defense."

I wonder if Hillary would have been so diplomatic if she was aware that the Mexican Constitution only affords the office of El Presidente to males?

Build the fence, Hillary, and they won't come.  These drug cartel members do not stop at the U.S. border entry points, but in the middle of the desert in the dead of night.

Save the country the 1.3 billion and the Black Hawk helicopters that will simply be used eventually to bring in more once the drug cartels hit the military bases there.  Mexico's government is also not free of corruption, similar to our own.

As far as the 6,000 deaths which have occurred, I'd recheck those stats if I were you.  Ms. Napolitano has a tendency to fudge on the numbers, as most Arizonans can relate.  And so does the Mexican government when it comes to foreign aid, and Americanos dollars.

Where are the stats on the number of border state residents and the lives and property lost within the past twenty years since the last "amnesty," and those also lost since the Mexican American War due to those open borders? 

Including those stats would actually give a more factual picture of the impact of those open borders and which citizens  truthfully have actually suffered the most loses.

Or is this Merida Initiative simply hush money for the underground "free trade" agreement that stimultes the economies of the funeral directors, medical care professionals, insurance and legal industries and provides work for those new DHS "jobs created" under the stimulus package and state and federal public employees in the criminal justice system?
