Mexico Vacation Spots

New Mexico is an enchanting land of diverse culture, beautiful landscapes, famous museums and art galleries. Established in 1607 and declared as a state of U.S in 1912, New Mexico is known for its distinctive flavor of Indian, Hispanic and Anglo culture and tradition. It is the fifth largest state in the country, with a population of less than 2 million.

Well if you think there are alot of illegal immigrants in the United States now; can you even imagine how many illegal aliens would be lined up at our borders in Mexico City had another large earthquake like in 1985 or another Volcano eruption? With 25 million people in Mexico City, it is one of the largest cities in the world.

President of Mexico Senior Vincent Fox has said that they must legalize drugs in Mexico. Well if they do this I have a problem because if addicts come to the United States will they also be strung out and steal to buy drugs here and will they then march in our streets in protest for free-court appointed rehabilitation? There is much more to this story that is not being addressed by Mexico’s choice to legalize drugs in their country and this choice will affect those of us in the United States of America too you know?

Mexico City is waiting for the next big Earthquake and if you will recall the 8.5 Earthquake in 1985 you can certainly understand why. Over 20,000 people had died there, some say it was white washed and many more perished during and after the big quake. Indeed most World Seismologist believe that Mexico City is in for another big quake and they say way over do; even more so than the San Francisco Bay Area.

Hurricane Chris is headed towards the Gulf of Mexico. If it strengthens prior to reaching Cuba and then travels between the Southern tip Florida and North of Cuba then it will go into much warmer waters and further strengthen. In August, the Gulf of Mexico waters are quite warm and this is like jet fuel to Hurricanes.

Unfortunately it appears that in fact Hurricane Chris is definitely headed for the Gulf of Mexico. Although nothing to do with the weather is set in stone, as the storm could hit Cuba or South Florida and weaken. However, even if that storm’s energy hits land prior to entering the Gulf of Mexico, this does not mean that energy will not regroup and go again.

Fortunately the Gulf of Mexico has seen no major Hurricane this year in the 2006 Atlantic Tropical Hurricane Season, which is a good thing because those ocean surface temperatures are indeed pretty hot. But now instead of large Hurricanes we have a large Earthquake right off the coast of Tampa Bay, Florida. The biggest in over thirty years in fact; of course as this happened hundreds of thousands of residence were worried of a Giant Title Wave or Tsunami.

I see another possible future industry brewing in Mexico, that is the making of mobile homes and coaches. They have year round possibilities and abundant labor. Also they have trade deals with China for inexpensive parts that need to be made for these on the road vehicles. I see a problem for the areas of Indiana, the northern areas and parts of TX where coaches are made. Also in the Carolinas, Virginia and Oregon. If these manufacturing facilities move over the border we will lose another round of jobs. Remember when the appliance businesses and furniture businesses moved over the border, followed by automobile factories. Many Mining industries too. NAFTA creates a place for this and our own labor and facilities are not paying attention to it. We now have another reason, the costs of steel and other metals with Import taxes up.
