The President of Mexico just sold the Presidential Plane and used the money to build a hospital in a poor part of Mexico. He seems like a good President. If he wants to help the poor then there are many ways.

One way to help the poor is to have tariffs on imports, the USA began as a nation with tariffs on imports being our source of income to run our Government and to build railroads, etc, up until World War 1. Mexico can build more Ports, and as the goods flow through the ports then Mexico can put tariffs on the imported goods and that way they can make money to build schools, hospitals, libraries, etc.

And groups like Kiwanis can help in Mexico, let them run tax free and let them help the poor, they can sell Kiwanis brand bottled mountain spring water with the money going to charity, etc.

There is also Youth For Christ, and the Catholic Church, etc, who can help in Mexico.

My Grandmother opened Gold Mines in Mexico and she helped to bring running water, electricity, paved roads, radio, television, telephones, etc, to some very poor parts of Mexico. Gold prices are high now, and Mexico has lots of Gold, Mexico needs to mine the Gold and they need to benefit from the money raised.

We also need to teach people to be more like Greece, the USA was built on the foundation provided by Athens and Rome, we need to have a population of poets and scholars, with lots of schools and libraries, Mexico can learn from Athens and Rome.

Salute,

Tony V.

The trouble with slapping tariffs on imports is that the countries whose exporters are affected then slap tarrifs on US imports, which affects US exporters.
Tricky business, tariffs.

My no 1 radio host (now retired, worse luck) used to say..."free trade is never free".

No way I'm buying food from some countries, no matter the price.
I buy food from USA, parts of Europe, but not Asia anywhere except Japan.

You have mentioned that you are a reflexive racist before. Thanks for reminding us it is a chronic deteriorating condition for you. It is just funny that the race you most prefer does not actually exist

I drink Colombian Coffee every morning. And I eat bananas from Costa Rica. I shop at a Mexican Market for groceries.

One thing in Mexico, they do not have racism because they all mixed together, they do not have conflicts from racism because they are all mixed together.

In the USA here in the black neighborhoods in Inglewood, and Compton, etc, they are building stadiums and lots of new businesses as the Mexican immigrants arrive, etc. Everyone in the world is coming to California, 33% of our people are foreign born, and 40% of the children in the Public Schools in Beverly Hills are Persian. We have 1 million Persians now in Los Angeles.

And I would love to own Universal Studios and be rich and powerful, and I could help the poor, etc, when I worked there then my fellow employees told me to buy the studio someday. We will see what happens. And I need to find a good Bride as a helper, I want a good Christian wife with the same goals that I have. Maybe I can meet a good woman on Facebook, or someplace. We will see what happens. Maybe I will marry a Catholic woman, we will see.

Of note, Christina Pascucci is running for the Senate, and I can volunteer to help her in order to meet good women, plus good things can happen for our state, I support what Christina stands for. Christina asked me to send her my ideas on how to help the homeless, and I told her that we need Hostels for $15 per night, like in Rome, etc. We have Mother Fuckers from Pakistan who come here and buy the motels and hotels and they want to charge people a fortune for a room, and we are just dirty Christians so they do not care if we are homeless, etc, we need to teach these fuckers from Pakistan that we are all human beings, and the Persians, and all of these fuckers need to care about the homeless, and the Japanese who own Sony Studios, etc, need to start helping the homeless and they need to care about people. The Christians are supposed to be helping the homeless, but many are fake and greedy instead of helping the poor like Jesus instructed.

Meanwhile, we can all support neutral organizations like Kiwanis International to help the poor.

Salute,

Tony V.

Do not sell yourself short. In addition to being a racist bigot you are also a useless fucktard, a brainless ass and butt ugly inside and out.

"Pacific Dory" is not Dory and has never been near the Pacific.

It's from the Mekong river in Vietnam.

In America we need to be "One For All, and All For One" regardless of race, and we need Brotherhood from sea to shining sea.

The Japanese, the Persians, the people from Pakistan, etc, they need to pitch in and help the homeless just like they were helping their own people, if they want to be Americans.

And I am ethnocentric I admit, but I really try to be kind to all people, and that is how we are going to win people over for Christ is by helping them when they need help, and by being kind.

These people who are coming to America must not be allowed just to get rich and to rape society by just taking and not giving, they need to become part of the Brotherhood and become givers, and that is how we have good loving communities.

My dearly departed friend Lisa from the Philippines was Roman Catholic, and she helped the homeless more than their own families did. Lisa had 10 houses full of homeless people and she cooked for the homeless, etc. Lisa was awesome, and we need more people like Lisa.

America is for everyone, but it would be nice if people pitched in and helped the homeless instead of just being greedy and self centered, it would be nice if people had Brotherhood.

There was a lady on the news complaining about the homeless people in her neighborhood, saying that the homeless people are bad for her neighborhood, and the answer is to get outside of yourself and to help the homeless people so that they will not be homeless. Even hostels for $15 per night for a bed and a shower would be great instead of being so fucking greedy that no one can afford to rent a room, down the street the cheap motel is $80 per night, the homeless cannot afford $80 per night, but if they had a hostel for $15 then the homeless could shower and they could sleep in a bed.

And we need more filmmakers like Frank Capra to show people about community and what the American Dream is about, we need good movies like "It's A Wonderful Life" and "Meet John Doe" etc. Instead of the horrible movies where people just fight and kill each other for 2 hours, the new movies suck, I think. John Wick and all of that, I would not pay to watch it, I have no desire to watch Keanu Reeves killing people for 2 hours. Ron Howard is a good filmmaker, and Spielberg, we have some good filmmakers, I hope better movies are made in the future, showing love, and kindness, and brotherhood, and all of the things that make America special. America is not about violence, and I am tired of movies that just portray America as being some horrible violent place. Bring back good movies like Frank Capra made.

We need movies that appeal to the goodness in America and the goodness in humanity like Frank Capra used to make.

Salute,

Tony V.

I eat the Swordfish from the local ocean, and that is why we need to stop the pollution, we need to be able to eat the fish that we catch.

I make Swordfish burritos, with onions, Anaheim peppers, olives, cheese, sour cream, guacamole, with fresh made tortillas from the Mexican Market, they are great burritos with all local ingredients, and with salsa and garlic, etc.

And the Italians have always been good Americans, and they have personified the American Dream, but lately everything is about Gangsters, and I would rather have the good stuff like Frank Capra made. Frank Capra was a good immigrant from Sicily who made movies about the good in America. Italian food, Italian women, Italian Opera, the Pope, they are great, and architecture, etc, and glass, etc, there are so many good things about Italians that it is sad when everyone focuses only on the gangsters. I hope people can make more movies about the good stuff that makes America great and about the good from Italy instead of just all gangster stuff.

The local Mahi Mahi is also good, you can go out and catch it and you can get enough fish to feed your whole neighborhood. We had a Mahi Mahi taco party with a live band and it was great, it was all about brotherhood in the neighborhood, it was a great day.

You can dig for clams in Malibu too, if you watched "Rockford Files" then you remember that Jim Rockford used to dig for clams at Paradise Cove. On any month with an "R" in it you can dig for clams. I love clam chowder when the weather is cool.

A good local restaurant in Huntington Beach is Wahoo's Fish Tacos, they also have a restaurant in Laguna Beach, and others. They would be successful in Malibu. They make fish tacos with local ingredients, and they help the poor, and they feed the poor. During Covid they were passing out free food to the people in the community. They are cool surfers who make great fish tacos and they help the homeless and they help people. They are a positive force in the world, and they raise the vibration.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wahoo%27s_Fish_Taco

We need to stop the pollution so that the fish are safe to eat. And there are local restaurants which are selling the locally harvested seafood and they are helping the homeless and they are feeding the hungry and they are doing a lot of cool things thanks to the Pacific Ocean.

Salute,

Tell me why turning USA into "Mexico/Central America/ South America" is a good idea.
They're the places people are drowning in the border river in a desperate bid to escape.

Mexico is our neighbor, Mexico is only 100 miles away from me here in Anaheim. And Mexico is a good Christian nation, they are all Christians. We need to help Mexico, and we need to stop the evil in Mexico to protect the good. We need to stop the evil in Mexico and in Central and South America and we need to foster good loving Christian civilization.

Youth For Christ, the Catholic Church, Kiwanis International, the Peace Corps, the World Bank, etc, etc, etc, all need to be active in Latin America to help the poor in Latin America.

And we need to build schools, libraries, and hospitals in Latin America, and we need for our people in the Western Hemisphere to learn from Athens and Rome and we need for our people to all be Poets and Scholars, etc.

When I am rich and powerful then I will help the orphans in Mexico, etc, as the Bible asks us to do in Matthew 25; 31-46. And Jeb Bush met his wife while helping to build an orphanage in Mexico, the Bush family loves Mexico. And Franklin Graham loves Mexico. Etc.

As the USA formed then one of the first things that happened was Alexander Hamilton formed the Bank of New York so that the USA could borrow money from ourselves instead of getting in debt to foreign nations, the first loan was to pay the new Government of the USA including paying President George Washington. The Bank of New York was the first company to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange. And the Bank of New York pays taxes to the USA on their profits.

Having good local banks is important in Latin America, including in Mexico.

And the people of Latin America need to be educated and trained on how to run a business and then they need to be given business loans to open new businesses and to create honest jobs.

Of note, people who are working at McDonald's can learn everything about the fast food industry and then they can get business loans to open their own fast food restaurants, etc. The people need to be able to get honest business loans so that they can rise and prosper.

We built schools such as Harvard to educate our people, and then we have the Bank of New York to help them to start out on their own in Business, and we have the Small Business Administration, etc, and Mexico and the rest of Latin America can learn from the USA. The Mexicans need good banks, and a good SBA, to help them to rise and to create jobs.

Of note too, Abraham Lincoln educated himself from libraries, he used to walk for miles to get a book from a library, he never attended college, it is important to have libraries in the poor areas in the USA as well as in Latin America, etc, and we need to have a population of poets and scholars.

Salute,
