Note: 'Food City' is part of the regional Bashas grocery store chain, catering mostly to Mexicans and Mexican-Americans. Currently Bashas is trying to emerge from bankruptcy, though it's unclear whether this will hinder or help, by closing less used stores.

#5 Tere is a good side to all this. For the last 30 years American companies, whorlpool, MD Helicopters, and other have move portions of their operation to Monterrey Mexico. Now with the crime rate and extortion so high they are all relooking their decisions. To move the type of manufacturing they have there is costly and time consuming. I suspect those companies are expanding their US operations to reduce the losses.

#6 ...yes, it's interesting how the corporate bean counters never seem to calculate the cost to operate with issues that are hard to quantify or aspects that within their own little corner office fish bowl never dawn on them. Then again no one has taught real history for nearly two generations in most of society, even back then after the usual recitation of events and players, it became the excuse for 'studies' rather than a practical tool. The military still values the old academy of study, though it has its own institutional tendencies to ignore the warnings and cautions.
