Problems have a way of spilling over the 1.850 miles of border that we share with Mexico. Currently. Mexico is in serious financial trouble. The decrease in oil prices has cut budget revenues by onefourth since the beginning of the year. Mexicos deficit is now. in proportion to its economy. more than twice as large as the United States deficit. We can see Mexicos crisis in the evergrowing numbers of illegal immigrants crossing our borders. We can also see it in the business failures Ihat have followed in the wake of the recent peso devaluation. But still larger troubles may be in store for Mexicoand for us.
