No maiz, No pais

Those lazy Mexicans who would rather sneak over the border than fix their own country again turned out to protest NAFTA.

Led by a column of tractors, tens of thousands of demonstrators marched through downtown Mexico City on Thursday to protest recent trade openings that removed the last tariff protections for ancestral Mexican crops like corn and beans.

Chanting "Without corn, the country doesn't exist!" farmers and farm activists from across the nation demanded the Mexican government renegotiate the 1994 North American Free Trade Agreement, or NAFTA, to reinstate protection for basic crops.

Americans don't give a shit about Latin America, except in therms of the invasion.

So Mexicans are standing up, not only in the ag sector, but mining as well, across Latin America.  

Jan. 28 (Bloomberg) -- More strikes may stall Mexican mines to protest the court-ordered end of a walkout at Grupo Mexico SAB's Cananea copper pit, according to Napoleon Gomez Urrutia, the union leader whose job actions have cost the country's biggest mining company $600 million in lost sales.

Like asking for decent working conditions from a corp that makes billions..sheesh, well it's Bloomberg.
