Unfortunately it ignores the root causes of the fiasco itself:
- The US has been waging financial warfare and sociocide on the peoples of Mexico, Central and South America for decades. We have destroyed their economies and left them will no means of survival; and
- The drug cartels exist and thrive only because the American people consume all the drugs they can provide. Some of our banks are even dependent on the laundering of drug money.
Unless neoliberalism and the "free trade" monster are stopped, the number of economic refugees will continue to grow. And sooner or later, this nation of ours will collapse under the strain.
The rich are not going to help, and those of us who already are poor have nothing more to give.
