I might point out that the opposition party holds only 40 percent of the seats in the United States House of Representatives. President Salinas has dismissed. indicted. convicted. or sent to jail 600 government officials for corruption. Inflation in Mexico has fallen from 160 percent a year to 10 percent a year. The Mexican peso has become fully convertible. Whereas in 1986. 1.7 million illegal aliens were apprehended in the United States that year. that number is down now to 1.1 million. My point is. the greatest recent economic and social transformation on the planet has occurred not in Eastern Europe. but south of our border. People talk about Mexican wages falling. and Mexican wages did fall for 15 years.
