How would you like to retire on the Mexican retirement plan -- get ziltch? The problem with this list is that you are able bodied people who can work and haven't had the experience of being pushed out of the labor force permanently. You don't seem to think of anyone who doesn't have that ability to have an employer hire you. You are not looking down the road at old age or possible disablement. I certainly would not want to rely upon Mexican disability or retirement benefits. So this nation, as crappy as it is, is something.
