  1. Hola. I decided to visit your blog for once. Lookin' good.

    And regarding the story, I think Mexico will find that its new relationship with China is not all its cracked out to be. The Chinese tend to bring in their own workers rather than hiring from the local population, which reduces the domestic economic impact of Chinese investment. The environmental impact, however, will be huge. Too bad we Americans will have to be breathing in that filth with every breeze that blows north.
