The Merida Initiative (update)

I wrote on this on Feburary 11,2008/// They've already allocated the money , Now it is 1.5 Billion dollars Congress has allocated to Mexico with no strings attached and no imput from us how they spend the money,,,,This is to help fight the war on Drugs. It seems they are killing police south of the border and Our loving representatives want to clean up Mexico, and the rest of Central America. As if not enough of our money is going south already. Now lets subsidize Mexico with no followup on the money....Of course everything will be OK, because they said so.....In watching the Legislature today I heard one decenting cry for not writing a blank check, If we indeed want to help keep it here. Another one said if ones neighbors house was on fire wouldn't we help... Again,,,I don't get it If we want Border security then secure our side of the border. Has anyone of these congesscritters gone to Mexico City lately,,,,You had better go with someone who knows the ropes, or you might not make it back. It is corruption......Everything is payola. A relative of mine went to Mexico City the car he was riding in was stopped by police. The driver gave the policeman about 50.00 dollars and when they got where they were going the driver said he had to pay 100.00 Dollars. and that's the way it went. Now send 1.5 Billion and see where it get us. Congress you want to spend that money do it on this side of the border....

Tap,
Good information. I hadn't seen this. I did see that a new crime has become epidemic, the theft of cacti from the American side and sale in Europe. You're right on about securing our side.
