Matter of fact, I was just in a house a certain Mexican, his wife, and four kids just moved into. They are probably renting, but his place is bigger than mine. No, Bruce, what I see here on the ground suggests somebody's -- lots of somebodies -- getting along better than you want to believe.

While I agree with you the Mexican economy needs a major remodel, it's not left unremodeled because every hard worker is up here north of the border. Remodeling an economy that began as a latifundium economy of a few holders of all the wealth and the vast mass of everyone else is going to take the endeavor of the whole of the population if you want to convert that start into the horde of smallholders, with secure property rights, that was and is the basis of the North American middle class.
