@panic1844 BUZZZZ!!! Wrong answer... Go back to elementary school... Know something about what you are talking about before commenting on it, yeah? Before the Europeans came, indigenous peoples like the Aztec, Inca, Maya, etc. were building their empires on the backs of slave-laborers (their own and conquered peoples). Their powerful elite treated the common man as nothing more than property. When the Spanish came they were abhorred by the blood lust of these empires and made war against them.

If we conceded the contested states back to Mexico the "people" would live the same. All of the plush fertile land would be taken by the "Elite" and the peasant class would live in poverty. The infrastructure would be too expensive to maintain and still allow the corrupt officials to live lavish lifestyles on the backs of the people. Revolutionaries always promise equality .... when have they ever delivered. They end up being a worse master than the one they overthrow.

@Innuendoh

You made a point? When? All you're statements do is support open door immigration. You just re-iterated what I posted. ;) Learn Spanish, and all is good. :) Gracias.:)

[Innuendoh]

@MrRossT1 Yep, America needs it's mules and peasants alright, and you fit the bill, yes? Thanks for making my point for me. Just sayin' ;)

[MrRossT1]

@Innuendoh

Funded and fueled by American interests. Drugs, prostitution and cheap labor. So the door to America must be kept open for Mexico.:) Just sayin'. :D

[Innuendoh]

@MrRossT1 Mexico is a despotic hell, from which most want to escape to the US and Canada, yes? Just sayin' ;)

[MrRossT1]

@Innuendoh

Mexico is free. That's why American companies build factories there. So in a freemarket world, labor has the right to migrate where they can get a better deal.:) Which so happens to be in the USA and Canada.:)

[Innuendoh]

@MrRossT1 Can't free your own beloved country? Need some help? Or would you rather tuck tail and run up north to the US (the land of freedom of speech) before you voice your opposition and grow a pair of MAN-nuts? If you're scared of your government and it's corruption, just say so, yes? Just sayin' ;)

@Innuendoh

???? So when the Mexicans come to America ( actually, they are just re-patriating the land they did not agree to sell as a people) the white folks in the videos have nothing to really complain about. They just gotta move. I like your logic sir! :) Viva Mexico!!! :)
