When you import a “third world” population you become a “third world” nation. The economic integration of North America will mitigate some of the worst aspects of this problem, but some trends are emerging
1. Corporations and the wealthy are absenting their money and sometimes themselves to avoid taxes
2. Private security companies are becoming a land office business guarding rich areas from poor areas
3. Prison populations continue to explode
4. Police forces continue to militarize (Mexico’s ‘drug war’ is the future of Canada and the USA)
5. Non-tradable low wage services jobs are being created in large numbers to insure that the working poor don’t become the idle poor
6. Large numbers of American and Canadian middle class and wealthy individuals (over 6 million to date) are buying homes and investing in Mexico
7. Politics is joining sports and other entertainment industries as meaningless distractions for ‘the masses’ economics (resources control) is what matters and government is becoming a side show to that
8. Mexico’s new president is promising to turn Mexico into the North American sweat shop for repatriated jobs from Asia
9. Robots are becoming the workers and soldiers of the future.
I could go on but why bother?
