I mow my own lawn!

One thing I´ve noticed for years when I talk with people from Mexico is that they just shrug and accept corruption from their federal and local governments. It´s almost as if they expect all politicians to be corrupt. This might explain why they vote for Democrats and aren´t too bothered by things like bankruptcy, dishonesty and negligence that results in fatalities in our current administration.

As long as the government hands out bennies, a Dictator for Life isn´t worth the concern.

He´s only partly correct. The reason it´s in such bad shape is because it´s run by democrats and they have no clue how to balance a checkbook.

Well, somebody needs to be at least a little truthful about this issue.

Just read an article below that claimed that Mexico was really doing well financially. So what is with their people straggling over here for freebies? I am sick and tired of them begging on street corners or outside of a mall. Go home and make your country live up to that article.
We also have canadians sneaking in here for medical treatment - not saying that they do not pay for it, but government running anything turns into something rotten.

I´m fat and it´s the spoons fault!!!!

Corolla will be excoriated for his comments, but had they been spoken by Bill Maher, nobody would give them a second thought.

As Corolla stated, `Are there ****** up things about our culture? Yes.`, and one of them is liberalism, which has wrought our current situation.

Number Two, excellent points.

The low morals and low standards are a win-win for the corrupt DimWits
who want them here.

Everybody´s in on the cheating and corruption and can benefit from it.
Or so they think.

Eventually there will be nothing left to plunder.
When America is no longer recognizable, the Mexicans will say (as they already do) -
"Hey man, give us back the territories you took from Mexico. We´ve already ruined it anyways, man... It´s, like... ours!"

Can´t endorse this. The US people have made their own problems. And California - was an enthusiastic leader.

What Carolla complains of was wholly predictable. We could have chosen otherwise.

Carolla is right. Mexico is not, and never has been, a beacon of hope. No one wants to emigrate to Mexico, or any other third world country. And yes, our culture is better, exactly for the reasons he stated.

Thanks, Adam, for some truth-telling! Would add that Mexicans are big on demanding unearned RESPECT. Do they ever show respect? No. Tu casa es mi casa!

Liberals let them "squat" here to buy their votes. What great accomplishments have they ever added to our great nation? Fruit-picking? Yardwork? Making beds? Washing dishes? Killing each other in our urban barrios? Have you ever seen their placement scores in community colleges? I have. Its abysmal! Thanks again to the left for illegal immigration, no border patrol, and foolish multi-lingual multi-culturalism...Fooey! LaRaza mi culo!

The maipulative, unethical and questionably corrupt Congress, -delegated by the Constitution to fund their legislation, ...plus the failure to simply enforce the law by the Presidential Administrations for over 2 decades, are both equally responsible for allowing the ILLEGAL immigration debacle.

Also, they are responsible for the general disrespect for law enforcement as a direct result of their neglect regarding ILLEGAL aliens throughout the past 2 decades. ...Instead of the law being efficiently & equally enforced, it has become a political football used by beltway pols for subjective favoritism for their own re-election votes. mmm mmm mmm

Not really. It´s the unions with their strangle hold on the government that are the biggest problem. They have manipulated every situation, so anything the Mexicans have done is downstream of that.

It may be unpopular, but Mexicans, for the most part, come here to work and they do. Unfortunately, the corrupt Cali government (corrupted by union money) puts out the welcome mat to Mexican gangs and grifters too. Plenty of every race in those two categories, but at least legal citizens are somewhat known.

#5 - Yes, and one reason Mexico is doing well is because millions of legal and illegal Mexicans in the US transfer the billions in cash they have earned here legally and illegally back to Mexico. Another reason the Mexican gov´t wants open borders with us on our border - but not for itself on its own southern border.

Somebody had to say it.

Why is Mexico a third world country when it has all those natural resources and built in tourist attractions? Because tis full of Mexicans.

I would like to see the numbers on how many dollars are wired from the US to Mexico. Or even how many wires there are.

No mater how many Mexicans we are talking about in public schools, the school system is broken everywhere.

Sorry for typo. That was matter.

The discussion began regarding Californias´ low ranking (50th) in how it is run financially. There is a lot more than this clip and it´s at the beginning of the show. Very good show. Listen for yourself.

They should tax the heck out of remittances but of course that will never happen.
