ORIGINAL: truckinslave It really is a serious situation, and an even more serious trend. Extrapolate it out... Closing the border would help Mexico in the long run. Many of their hardest-working, smartest people, people who could really help their country (and would prefer to, if it was possible) .... leave. Revolution against the cartels is not the only revolution they need. Mexico and the USA both have natural resources (they have more oil; we may have more/better farmland). Both have intelligent hardworking people. Both have everything from warmweather ports to international tourist destinations. What's the difference? The United States Constitution. They need a revolution. So, you seal off the border, severely restrict entry, and let the carnage ensue. Up until now, most of the 26,000 killed were themselves in some form of drug business or another. If Mexico collapses, the collateral damage of your "revolution" will be even bigger than that of the current fight against drugs. How many people die before your nation takes action? If Mexico goes under, the casualties so far would look like Manhattan on September 10th.
