If you think US corruption began with Trump, you haven’t been paying attention or know very little about US history. The Donald is just a product of a nationwide problem that has existed for 200 years regardless of political affiliation.
Capitalism is the problem as it requires exploitation.
That is why free markets like Nigeria suffered while closed markets like Japan succeeded.
Henry Kissinger had the best quote....”all you need to know about a country is are people trying to get out or trying to get in.”
If Mexico is such a happy country...why is everybody leaving??
I live in a community that went from ZERO to 35% Mexican in 20 years. They are hard workers, smart people, family oriented, as a general rule.
WHY did the Mexican government let its “best and brightest” escape from the country???
With all due respect to Mexico.....they were much kinder than my parents homeland the Soviet Union. There they just took the “best and brightest” and KILLED them. Mexico just exported them to the United States.

For several years, Mexicans have been leaving the US, a net-negative migration. The current immigrants are from Central America, not Mexico. Try to keep up with the news and post facts not fiction.

Despite that oft-proclaimed fact, every statistical report I've seen shows Mexico continues to have net emigration. Here's one.
Despite Trump's statements about ongoing illegal immigration from Mexico, however, Pew researchers have concluded that around the time of the 2007-2008 financial crisis, Mexican immigration to this country slowed dramatically.
Not only did fewer Mexicans come to this country, many Mexicans went home. Between 2009 and 2014, slightly more than one million Mexicans and their US-born children left the US for Mexico.
That number exceeded the number of Mexican immigrants who arrived in America in the same period, according to the Pew report. The population of Mexican-born people in the US also began to decline. Many of the Mexican immigrants who remained weren't new arrivals, but long-term residents with children.
Mexico's economy is fairly strong. I have owned homes in MEX since 2008. I live in a village and have talked to many who have crossed into the US to work, and since returned. In most cases of single men who left, that was their plan. To head north to make enough money to return to MEX and start a family, start a business, build a house for their family.
Many of our "ethnic" restaurants here are owned and operated by Mexicans who learned how to cook Italian, Thai, Continental cuisines at some of the best restaurants in Los Angeles, NYC, etc. Others who returned from the US were able to buy or start other businesses.
Yes in the 1980s - 1990's there were Mexican families who left with the intention of never coming back, but MEX's economy was dismal in those years. That is no longer true and hasn't been for some time.
