The bribe in Mexico is a cultural thing. The Mayors at this meeting are well aquainted with La Mordida.

These clowns said that 85% fo what goes on down there is legal and only 15% of what happens is illegal. They are fighting a problem that they didn't create. It was the US demand for drugs.

They will probably also say that they had nothing to do with the money in their pockets from illegal activities either.

These guys are as the Mexican people would say "Mas chueco que un cuerno de chivo".

The go on to say that the people living out there know that most of the activities are legal. Put out a questionaire to the people. They will tell you that all public officials are corrupt.

Don't let these fools fool you.

Stop blaming the US for the way Mexico is. Take some responsibility. Stop sending your problem people to the US illegally and start working on making your country better. Take care of your own problems and stop counting on the USA to take care of all of Mexico's problems.
What weak and lazy people! Who ever said that the USA has to take care of Mexico?

[yes man]

Well said.

Mexican mayors need to keep their Mexicans in Mexico! We know what they are. They have bankrupted the United States. They have also returned the US to third world status with their filth and disease. To unleash the blacks and Mexicans in America is all part of the NWO plan to destroy America. I believe white Americans are getting a great "perception" of the whole mess.

[PiinkyandNoBrain]

Don't blame everything on the Mexican people. They truly have a phucked up government, but they are not to blame for all the failure in the USA over the last few years. Look to see who's been getting rich off of all the phuck ups. These people have just been used throughout the years like you and I.
I do however believe that every politician in Mexico is corrupt and 99% of the cops are corrupt and the rest is all just details and time.

Mexico is a small country with the distinction of being the sixteenth most corrupt government in the world.

Quite an achievement. La Mordida, "the bite" is alive and well

[Texan2]

More Mexican crap. "Mexico's not so bad". When the police or the drug gangs shoot you you will only be 15% dead. What a crock and here they go again blaming all their problems on the U.S. "We wouldn't sell drugs if you didn't buy them". "We wouldn't shoot people if you didn't sell us the guns". What a god forsaken place.

[kelly13]

And who are most of the criminals here selling drugs? Illegals. Who are most of the gang members? Illegals. Who are so many of our criminals? Illegals.
How about a statement like "we wouldn't have money if we didn't steal it from the US". Or we would even have less money and more corruption if we didn't send all our problems to the USA.
The USA and it's citizens had something to be proud of. We built a great country before the illegal invasion. Mexico has nothing to complain about. They created their cesspool of a country due to the lazy, selfish attitude of the people. They wanted to be taken care of.Not American standards by a long shot.
Take that mentality and the illegals out of our country and we will be what we used to be.

Kelly13,

In all truth, we gladly give the Mexican gov't money to continue it's power struggle over the drug trade. You hardly have to wait for anyone to come here and take money. We ship it to the crooked politicians by the millions.

W/r to the dealing of drugs. There are a lot of pockets getting filled by the drug trade. All races are involved. Mexicans are typically used for little dealing. There are others pulling the strings.

Legalize drugs and you kill the whole drug problem. Close the borders and you stop drugs and illegals from coming or going. There is one little hick-up. The American economy depends heavily on all the products coming up from and going out through Mexico. It's not only drug money, it's NAFTA, it's a whole lot of things. This is no longer the America that can stand by itself. We have become completely enslaved into importing products.

Liberty ships were cargo ships built in the United States during World War II. Though British in conception, they were adapted by the U.S. as they were cheap and quick to build, and came to symbolize U.S. wartime industrial output. Based on vessels ordered by Britain to replace ships torpedoed by German U-boats, they were purchased for the U.S. fleet and for lend-lease provision to Britain. Eighteen American shipyards built 2,751 Libertys between 1941 and 1945, easily the largest number of ships produced to a single design.

The production of these vessels mirrored, on a much larger scale, the manufacture of the Hog Islander ship and similar standardized types during World War I. The immense effort to build Liberty ships, the sheer number of ships built, and the fact that some of the ships survived far longer than the original design life of five years, make them the subject of much study.

Could the United States do this today? If their was another World War who would produce the ammunition? China?

[PinkyandNoBrain]

All weapons are produced primarily by the USA. The USA sells and partners with others. China is not one of them. There is a such thing as security of the nation.

W/r to the massive ship building efforts. The ship yards are still here. Matter of fact, the ship builders are busy building new war ships for the USA. Look up the latest and greatest war ships. They are pretty impressive.

So, could the USA do this again. The obvious answer is YES. We are a country of amazing people.

One big thing is that the trades are not as pronounced as they once were.
