Mexico is a dying country, running on hatred of capitalism, America, and the catholic church. The citizens have a strange tendency to move to America to be closer to everything the profess to despise. Expect nothing and you will hardly be disappointed.

That’s it. I’m crossing the desert, going to Mexico City, waving an American flag and DEmanding to be made a citizen. – msupertas on February 3, 2013 at 8:53 PM

Don’t try it. They have strict immigration laws that they do enforce.

Sure why not? Then we ( the US ) can give them areas like we did China that we should be drilling. I mean its okay for other countries to drill but to heck with our own and making OURSELVES on OUR LAND/WATER less dependent on other countries.

O its nice to see gas over 3.50 again here in WI. Can not wait to see what its going to be once summer hits and we need to have the “special” blends.

But, like presidents before him, he has been forced in recent weeks to reassure Mexicans that he has no plans to privatize the company itself.

Is it any wonder why Mexicans go Democrat? I’m sure they’ll be forthcoming with info on the ‘infrastructure failure’.

Basically they want all the benefits, but need expertise. Let them wallow in it; even though I know someone will “assist” them.

Hey, perhaps the Mexican economy will take off and Mexicans will find good jobs in Mexico………. and, will stay in Mexico. We can get our college graduates to harvest our food crops.

Pemex – a symbol in Mexico of energy self-sufficiency but also security problems, oil theft and inefficiency – has suffered several fatal gas explosions. …

Umm, if they nationalized the industry, even if in the thirties, that’s not self sufficient, that was using what others had built.

All of this is happening as Mexico’s overall economy is lately showing signs of more robust growth and competitiveness — the economy grew almost four percent in 2012

But Republicans and Democrats tell me that we need to import poverty labor to expand the economy. Are you telling me that Mexico expanded their economy after exporting millions of potential cheap laborers?

Just think of all the self-deportation a Mexican oil-and-gas boom would inspire.

Is Mexico ready to join the oil-and-gas boom?

Um, they’re gonna have to join civilization first, as in dealing with the bloody cartel madness. I’m not hopeful.
