Hmmm. Once they legalize and tax it- they can't make money helping the narcos move it, can they?
How would any of them get by living on their salary? I remember reading the top judges in Mexico are paid $500K a year so they can't be corrupted.
Right idea- wrong number. The Police Chief of TJ was getting that much a month. Would they rather have a clean country or a retirement home in
Europe and $millions more tucked away?
We know many Mexican authorities are corrupt and I believe Mexico when they say many on the US side are corrupt too. The nature of man is evil-
that's why we have religions, laws and social mores to keep us from being our true selves.
Given the depth and complexity of the problems in Mexico and the decades it will take to fix them- they are actually making the logical choice in a
family-based society... Take the money and run. They can see no change in their or their childrens lifetimes.
The 11 million Mexicans who have already migrated to the USA and elsewhere have already done the running part- they just didn't have money to take
with them. JMHO

Yeah I know. The Connecticut yankee geezer in me is brutally honest. I was typing a reply to a post and realized why it is I get so negative and
critical on certain topics... it's because Mexico will not get better in my lifetime.
What I saved my lifetime for and moved here to enjoy with my family and friends no longer exists. It probably wasn't here when I built my house six
years ago. I gave my memories of baja norte from the 80's too much weight in my retirement decision. It was a point it time in my life so perfect
that I though it was frozen in time here for me to enjoy and share forever. Silly me. Things change, people change, everything chnges and baja can
be no different. We Connecticut Yankees hate to have no control in our lives or be forced to admit when we are fools.
And before I depress anyone any more- I have five labs at my feet who want to go out and play on the beach. What am I doing near the PC anyway?
I'll be 100% better when I come back in- guaranteed.

I don't know about this bathroom bit, but the bathrooms nowadays are palaces compared to the ones I remember from the 60's and 70's.
