I'm with you on that one Woody. That would maybe be my best change-- no new paved roads
My favorite thing to do down here is go on obscure roads into the mountains. The road to San Javier is being paved now, and they say they will finish
it-- all the way. As I understand from people up there that I've talked with about half of the residents are happy about it, and half would prefer it
stay as it is. I think that road will be more dangerous with people traveling faster, and the surface falling into disrepair. And the town will
certainly change. But I can see how many of the people, especially those who drive into Loreto for work, will benefit from faster travel.
I'd like to see Mex 1 improved, as it is a danerous drive, but I love the mystery of a good bad road, and the reward of a remote place at the end.

I'd like to see the drug traffic give up on the Baja border and go through the mainland only.

Why do we keep going through this, Nothing that this board comes up with is going to change anything, its their country and they will make changes as
fits their need. I think the majority of this should go to the off topic and discus the changes in the country you living in, you are suppose to be
able to makes changes in the USA for sure there needs to be some. |
I agree

Whoa. Imagine if immigrants to USA said we can't affect our lives and negotiate change? Mexico is no different. Now, why do we keep having this
agrument? Mexico is like all nations, made up of various minded people, various backgrounds who through their individual and group efforts make it
what it is. The idea that one should sit back and let others do the work is absurd, proven to be a self-defeating position and has no validity so
let's drop it as a discussion point. Everyone here who lives in Baja has a role and their involvement is huge, by their contribution and example. Stop
making excuses and get to the hard part and start getting involved.

Why do you not understand that we are without the rights of a Mexican National and if we interfere in the political process we put our status in
Mexico in jeopardy, We can make police reports as you suggest but I can't think of anything else other than Living in a Colonus like Comitan you can
hold a position on the board, with a letter explaining to Immigration that it is a non paying position. You can also help with children s programs,
and Pet programs which a lot of gringoes are doing so don't say the gringoes don't do anything.
