Economy Problems: Mexico Scares Me! Look-out for Chavez!

As the entire world is having economic problems, what is next? Mexico has always been a “Third-World” country, but it is getting even worse, much worse, so what happens if the Mexican government completely collapses? You know how many peopleĀ are already coming here to get away and to make a living, if the entire thing down there goes bad, what will happen? Here is an article by Glenn Beck on FoxNews.com, “As Goes California, So Goes America”, read this for but one scenario, a very real situation, even if Mexico doesn’t fall apart.
Look at the events in Venezuela, Hugo Chavez has pretty much set himself up as dictator, and the idiots that live there voted for it! Hmm, reminds me a bit of our most recent Presidential election here! It just goes to show you, if you promise people something for nothing, they fall for it every time! What is really scary, and should give people even more reason to worry, is who Chavez’s friends are, look at the picture, Chavez and Ahmadinejad look pretty chummy!
I know why they are laughing, they are talking about how they and Obama are going to wreck the U.S. and take over the entire North American continent, like Canada would do anything. Ffirst it starts out socialism, then its communism! Why would any of that make Ahmadinejad happy? Simple, Chavez and Obama take the West, Putin takes Europe and Asia, and Ahmadinejad takes the Middle east and Africa! With America out of the way, since Obama is helping them, the disease of socialism can spread, the U.S. becomes a poor country, and then we are all here just wondering what happened! Funny thing is that nobody seems to know what is bad about socialism. You can’t blame Bush for that one!
Yes, that is a severely exaggerated opinion of but one possible scenario, and I pray to God that Obama is not going to let it go that far, but, my point is, It Could Happen! RememberĀ “Yes, We Can” and “Change You Can Believe In” and all of the rest? Americans were acting like the lemmings down there in Venezuela, I have to say, I am embarrassed, I am a Proud American, and to see where we are headed is a big dissappointment.
There always have been poor people and there always will be. The whole point of Free Markets and Capitalism is so that if you work hard enough you can make it to the top, way above the bottom, the whole point of Socialism is to make everybody the same, and, if you look at Venezuela, that means everybody but the Dictator is poor! Yes, Capitalism can also be described as “Survival of the Fittest”, people and businesses may fail, but, it is that opportunity to make it back to the top!
I heard an old German saying that translates to something like this; A man who makes a lot of mistakes, works hard, A man who makes no mistakes, is a lazy dog! How many mistakes have you made?
