#2 The phrase 'NAFTA Tariffs' should get the Mexicans to change their tune.

#3 This is what Sec State Rex Tillerson, being a business man, will put on the table after explaining the new rules:
Statistics (Wikipedia.org)

Exports $359.3 billion (2016 est.)
Export goods automobiles, electronics, televisions, computers, mobile phones, LCDs, oil and oil products, silver, fruits, vegetables, coffee, cotton.
Main export partners United States 80.3% Canada 2.7% China 1.5% Spain 1.5% Brazil 1.2% (2014 est.)...

I suggest they don't rock the boat on our importing 80.3% of Mexican exports. We can always encourage Argentina or Brazil to chip away at that number.

#4 I'm waiting for them to export cannabis Corona and Cuervo. Growing my own avocados for dip.

#5 Why are they so angry? Mexico immigrant polities is far more restrictive and stricter than USA immigrant polities!

#6 Article 33 of the Mexican Constitution reads -

"The Federal Executive shall have the exclusive power to compel any foreigner whose remaining he may deem inexpedient to abandon the national territory immediately and without the necessity of previous legal action."

It also states: "Foreigners may not in any way participate in the political affairs of the country."

#7 It's not about all the people that will be sent home, it's about all the money they will no longer be able to send to Mexico.

#10 Mexico reacted with anger on Wednesday to what one official called "hostile" new U.S. immigration guidelines

IOW they get back all their good, law-abiding citizens educated and cared for at the expense of the American taxpayer. If they're a boon the the economy here that ought to go double for what they could do for the Mexican economy when they get back. What's not to like if you're in charge of Mexico?

#11 I do not recall any time in my life when Mexico was anything other than a hostile nation on our border. They seek to benefit themselves at our expense. I am at the point where I think an patrolled border with Mexico is needed. And not the Border Patrol; I'm thinking armored cav.

#12 Hmmm....it appears 3-6th Cav is at Fort Bliss along with 1AD. It's a start. 1Cav is not too far up at Fort Hood.

#13 Mexican taxpayers have taken a hit with empty prisons. They should consider deportations a job stimulus.

#14 And not the Border Patrol; I'm thinking armored cav.

Seems like a great environment for testing and deploying autonomous killpatrol-bots. This could be the next DARPA Challenge.

#15 I'm sure this is all for the Mexican people's consumption, but if they don't tone it down they will find Americans refusing to buy Mexican products, or products manufactured in Mexico and they'll be in real trouble.

Time for Mexico to change a few laws and allow foreign investment without all requirements that someone connected has to be involved. Watch investment flow in.

Time for Mexico to create a CCC type plan and employ their people to pave a superhighway system and fix up the regional highways.

Time for Mexico to start pushing their people to get educated.

Mexico can be first world. They just need to act, even if it might be a rocky road ahead.

#16 If you ever want to see Mexican respect for the US on display at the border, go to San Diego and walk along the fence line and see the tens of thousands of bags of garbage that they throw across the border into the US.
