Tripledigit inflation brought about a lack of earning power in that country that we cannot fathom. Have we forgotten that just 10 years ago in a desperate move to stabilize its economy. Mexico literally cut the value of its currency in half? The economic effect of that move brought about a nosedive in the economies of the border States in the Southwest. Illegal immigration soared. Small businesses from Brownsville to San Diego shut their doors in record numbers. Yet economic and political reforms have reversed that trend in a country that wants to join with us and Canada to move together into the 21st century.
