Former Mexican president Vicente Fox made headlines when he
said Mexico would not pay for the wall Donald Trump campaigned
he would build if elected.
What has yet to make headlines is the great injustice by the Mexican
govt. by failing to provide for its own people that led to an exodus to
the United States for a better life.
Fox remarks should give us pause and also stiffen our spine when
these verbal assault occur.
Consider what he did NOT say in his interview.
Fox did not acknowledge Mexico failed to provide a quality the life
its citizens deserve.
He also conveniently avoided mentioning NAFTA, the trade agreement
designed to create an economic boom in North America. As president
he reneged on its commitment to build the required infrastructure that
contributed to Mexico not benefiting as Canada and United States did.
Nor, will you hear of the equivalent to the Mafia now populating the
poorest urban areas, peddling drugs from south of Mexican-US border
destroying the fabric of poor American communities due to Mexico
failing to protect ITS side of the border to stop drug trafficking.
This failure has contributed to our prison population having almost
400,000 criminal aliens in federal, state and local facilities at a cost
of $15 billion annually, money that could be better spent on our
non-alien prison population!

The problem of illegal immigration goes beyond American workers
losing jobs to foreign workers. The failure to successfully address
this problem touches every area of American life.
Our social service system can barely provide for the truly needy, law
enforcement is stretched to the limit, court systems are overwhelmed,
public education in most at risk communities has been crippled and
our political system has been tied in knots.
THIS is some of what is happening 'thanks' to Vincente Fox and others
in the Mexican govt.
Since the United States grew in the Southwest, there was never a need
for a wall on our southern border. At one time it was as open as the one
we share with our northern neighbor Canada.
There is a need as long as Mexico and other of our southern neighbors
fail to do more for their citizens.
The 'Fox' in America's 'hen-house' has overstayed its welcome!
