Mexican Entrepreneurial Spirit


Saw this a.m. where the Prime Contractors in Mexico's Premier Industrial Activity are "Adjusting and Adapting" by "Cloning" Border Patrol vehicles for use in motoring their product North across the border.

You have to admire their Inventive thinking.

Seems like a lot of work when they could probably steal all they want from the fenced yards along the border. It's unbelievable to see all those tax dollars parked and doing nothing. Lots of them.

Anywhere you look around the world people are getting on with work, wealth and progress. Only in the USA are we hung up on PCness, legalities and lethargy. If you want to get good and scared do a little research on China. They own us...and they are advancing as we did in the 1890s to 1960s.

We had better wake up and get our fat and lazy and greedy asses off the chairs and get to work competing again or we will be Bangladesh and Bangladesh will be us.

BB- How does this tie in with the topic? Are we falling behind economically in the drug trafficing industry?:?:

That's because, Toneart, we don't even have the balls and energy to raise out own dope..gotta rely on Afghanistan and Columbia to supply us. :-)

I am almost positive the CBP vehicles all have embedded GPS units which would probably not make them real attractive to the cartels.

At least in China they take care of their drug fiends. They execute them unlike here in the states were we give them probation and kick them lose on the streets to burglarize or homes.
