I wonder if Joe can play the banjo?

Yes...but that song is offensive...almost racist Doug.

The issue is not a dislike of Mexican's. I get along great with and
respect many and most of the Mexican's that work here in the yard, and
I have worked with over the years. I've worked in Mexico for 2 years
straight. I like the culture and find the people humble, hard working,
and mostly good people.

Without addressing the reason(s) for the tremendous numbers
of poor people willing to come here illegally, there's
almost no point in trying to slow down the flow.

Why not? Maybe by doing nothing here we are encouraging and supporting
more corruption south of the border. If we put a stop to illegal
immigration perhaps the leaders south of the border would do more to
provide it's own citizens with profitable work. Seems Mexicos leaders
are to busy printing maps and guides to sneek the problem across the
border for the gringos to deal with. Very cost effective.

If the Feds went to a dozen randomly selected large
corporations, checked for the presence of illegal
immigrants, and arrested the CEO and Board, the problem
would go away.

Exactly, if we enforced current laws, there would not be a problem. If
I dropped a dime to INS it would be easy to get every contractor doing
bottom jobs shut down here. Well except they have way bigger fish to
deal with and could care less.

Maybe we should think about ****canning the director of the INS and
keep firing them until we can find one who will enforce the laws we put
them in charge of enforcing. You are right, we need a few Enron type
trials of CEO's ect using illegal labor.


Of course, so would a magnificent source of
campaign contributions... hmm, does anybody think there
might be a pattern? Better turn it over to the Department of
Connecting The Dots.

Yeah...I thought John McCain could not be bought, but it seems the
farmers in AZ must shove a huge heeping pile of money on his desk every
year.


Meanwhile, I recommend learning a little Spanish. It'll
expand your potential cruising grounds too.

You planing on cruising Texas and California or NY Amigo?.

Need real world tips on entering port in Mexico?
My company always had a big box of goodies for the Port Captian and
customs to share on the galley table ready to be seized. American
smokes, Playboy magazines, Couple cases whiskey......cash...ect. Then
the PeMex guys, Mayor, Dispatcher, ect.ect.ect. Lot's of cash came in
handy..
