A Nation of Borders
One of the difficult issues with the border between the United States and Mexico is that Mexico has been through a rather large number of failed governments over the centuries. And they don’t like the fact that we… negotiated their land from them. They in fact make it a national past time to print maps of Mexico including the territory we bought from them as part of Mexico. And Mexican people crossing the border carry those maps with them and often claim the territory as belonging to them. Tens of millions have crossed the border illegally in just the last few years in fact. With many tens of millions in the decades before that. And for an extra bit of joy, Mexican drug gangs are crossing the border with drugs, selling them to Americans, and killing hundreds of thousands of Americans over the last few years. The border is a serious problem that must be addressed. All nations that wish to remain nations must address such issues.
