Thats the capitalist way. Investors in Mexico might get 50 or 60 or even 70 cents on the dollar. That is fair. Investors in Mexico took a gamble. If they wanted a United Statesguaranteed investment. they should have put their money into a 6percent C.D.. not a 20percent Mexican p sobono. The President has given in to economic blackmail. Will American taxpayers have to send Mexico $40 billion next time to protect our borders from illegal immigration? I am outraged that the President has used our exchange stabilization fund to pay blackmail to Mexico. The President has set a terrible precedent.
