Ruben Navarrette Jr. needs to outgrow his immature race card nonsense. I highly encourage Americans to drive to Mexico and purchase gasoline. Why in heck would I say anything different? Shucks, I would do so in a heartbeat if given half a chance! Mexico is a corrupt country that needs to get its act together. The widespread socialism and the domination of the government by a few lavishly wealthy families have sharply limited the economic growth of the nation. Mexicans should not envy their far wealthier neighbor. No, they should instead try to become more like it.
The United States should embrace the exact same immigration policies of Canada. An immigrant should be allowed into the country primarily based on their talents and willingness to assimilate. Race and ethnicity are irrelevant factors. We should be thrilled to accept the well educated people of every nation on this planet. Needless to add, this includes Mexicans. Who disagrees? I am unaware of any serious dissent.
