They don't need tax money. Like Bush, they will just have Bernanke run the printing presses at the mint and get what they need. The dollar might be worth a Peso but they can always print more of them up!
Ah, just wait, if the North American Union ever comes to fruition, us and the Canadians will be forced to work for Mexican wages. However, consumer prices will keep rising. We'll have to live in shacks as poor Mexicans do. Won't that be fun?
I don't know what people are so upset about - it is the natural extension of capitalism and the free market.
Don't worry though, stocks are looking good and the execs are still getting their record bonuses. For increasing profit by moving jobs overseas.
You dont like it you can choose to not buy their products or their stock.. Or better yet, buy their stock and then be in a position to fight the moving of jobs overseas.. Instead, you'd rather sit here and cry about the free market system at work.

Another post that makes no sense whatsoever.

Why so the stocks can drop?
Choose not to buy their products? It is Mexico, India or China today, pg. Nothing you can buy from America anymore.
I am doing fine working in a global business position, don;t worry about me.
You can't beat them, you join them.
(That's why I learned Spanish as an adult. Now I need to get my kids into those Mandarin Chinese classes.)
Why should Mexico raise the wages of its citizens when those dissatisfied can come to America illegally and work for higher pay and fee health care.
Good point!
You know, after WWII America was number one in manufacturing. People were paid good wages and a whole middle class was created and became the foundation of this country. Why was this possible? It was possible because jobs stayed in America. This was before greed took over, before companies abandoned American workers for cheaper labor overseas. This whole global economy concept is a just mask and behind that mask is out of control greed that we see today where top workers reap all the benefits and bottom workers barely scrape by.
I will stop here because this thread is about the Mexicans.
