I predict that Mexico will become a good economic partner in manufacturing for

Let's hope all of those guys are friendly. Thank god I will
be dead by then.

I wonder who works and who sells if you can't eat. India and China are quietly
in crisis mode in those regards...we aren't. Mexico isn't either. As a matter of
fact Brazil, Argentina, Peru and a host of other North and South American
countries are not either. Makes one think doesn't it.
Mmmm we hold the food keys, they hold the gear. We win. Again. g

China is investing in US securities at a rapid pace. One
day, all they will have to do is dump the stuff and our
economy will collapse. A large number of other countries are
also investing their earnings (from our purchases of their
goods) in US securities. If it were not for them we would
have an economic meltdown. They are well aware of that.
