I'm talking about the payoff for society that the government is supposed to represent, not just a few investors. It is the same issue that goes for all essential goods. There are no technical reasons for shortages of any kind.
I may starve, but I sure won't freeze... And a mule still makes for pretty reliable transportation.. and communications are through drug induced telepathy..
Because for about $100 cash I can bribe an official...
That was maybe 30 years ago. You need between 5 and 10 thousand now.. if you want a professional.. But hell, you can buy an American with that kind of money, and get better service..
Government is corrupt no matter where you are. Politicians are bought and sold like trinkets at the bizarre. The Mexicans just happened to be on the wrong end of the big stick. I hear they want to start locking you up for downloading movies and music.. Justice at its best, it seems
Wake me when you figure out who finances it all, and where the orders come from. Your ignorance is simply overwhelming. That you choose to stay that way is something else.
...but at least here we don't have to worry about having our heads chopped off or being raped by the police...
Deeper in the rabbit hole you go. And that list is very incomplete. Now, feel free to play your numbers game. It will be duly noted. Oh, and let's see what happens if you put up even the tiniest bit of resistance, no matter how justified.
2011, and the bigotry is as pervasive as ever. Hard to believe it's real
It's your broken culture that produces the violence seen here. Sure, we have some problems with violence, but nothing remotely like what's seen there.
*cough* Yeah, we know. You've off shored that too.
I don't believe I've ever seen anybody so swallowed up in the media trap. You are so high on the blue pill you literally don't see beyond your own skin. One thing you do show, your politicians are made in your image... Thank you for a most educational perspective. Pero huele muy feo el pedorro
Your culture worships violence, crime.. your people are more violent than just about any on earth, and you should be isolated and left to your own devices.
Coming from an American... That's... interesting...
FTFL: In May 2006, then-President Vicente Fox, of the same right-wing party as Calderon, vetoed a similar bill that he initially had supported. He backed down only under pressure from the Bush administration, which complained that decriminalization for even small amounts could increase use.
We had to "sneak" it through this time to keep you people off our backs. So please, accept responsibility for the people you elect to high office. In other words, curb your dog. And put a muzzle on it..
I don't know where you think you would find your little law and order utopia, but it sure isn't here. Kidnapping (and the drug war) is a problem due to official corruption, not for lack of tagging our kids like cattle..
Outsider meddling in our domestic politics doesn't help matters any either
There's no reason for a hurricane to be anything more than a public nuisance. I lived under Wilma for a whole 48 hours (just leaving five years ago tonight as a matter of fact), and Emily only a few months before that. How did we prepare? Bought lots of beer (before they cut off liquor sales a full 36 hours before it hit, the bastards!), tied down the water tank on the roof and pruned a few trees (one still fell over anyway), probably didn't need to board up the windows. Power was back on in the center of town within 12 hours. Phones (land lines, cell phones worked right away) were another story, took a month. Most of our houses are concrete block with reinforced columns in the corners. More than sufficient to withstand a cat5. You don't need a study to figure that out. A note to you all up in New Orleans, it helps to build above sea level. But let's have a study to be sure. You are creating a bureaucratic paradise up there, but you still have some catching up to do:-)

And on a more serious note, why hasn't California tried getting water from the ocean?
Profit margins are too low, and you know, politics. It's something only the state can do. And it would pay off extremely well.
Que?
Companies have much bigger, um, teats... You can say that, right?

Hell they're more respected than Fox News...
Well they're not afraid to print the truth! They're second only to Al Jazeera.. or the New Yorker.. I always get those two mixed up

Mexico is a sovereign nation.
Unfortunately no. There's no such thing. A funny thing happened on 9/11.. Pretty effective deterrent against subversive activity, don't you think?

Thank you for showing you don't have clue. Blinded by arrogance to this day you are... And you wonder why the world doesn't bow down to you..
Now! And anybody else who makes these things
Department of revenue... Like the IRS

We're keep trying, but the Americans keep interfering. The watered down laws we have now do more damage than good.
Unless they attach this to Hacienda, the only government department that actually works.

I can tell you that hurricanes sound really cool.
There was a young monk from Dundee
Who hung a nun's cunt on a tree.
He grabbed her fair ass
And performed a high mass
That even the Pope came to see.
What kind of ark do you build?
