We do not need to be afraid of the people of Mexico, and we do not need to be afraid of the people from Latin America.
My Grandmother opened Gold mines in Mexico, and they loved her in Mexico. The secret is to spread the wealth, and be generous. And she helped to bring electricity, and running water, and paved roads, and telephones, etc, to some very poor parts of Mexico. If you go in and help the people, then everything will be great, and you will not have any problems. The people will take care of you.
I went to Mexico with Youth For Christ and they loved us in Mexico, because we were there to help people, they knew that we were good people.
And with the terrorists, if the people love you then they will not let the terrorists hurt you. But, it is always good to have security. My Mother went to Mexico on business for a real estate deal, and she had armed security with her group.
We can do business with Latin America, and we do not need any walls.
We would be wise to invest in ports in Mexico, and to make our immigrants legal, and to make it legal for Mexicans to drive trucks, etc, in the USA, etc.
Salute,
Tony V.
