Mexico Tourism Suffers

Who would think that having peoples heads cut-off on vacation would impact where people choose to go? Bad enough they give you a Toyota as a rental down there.

Mexico doesnt deserve our tourism money. We should start going after the druggies since the Mexican government cant take care of it. Especially if these worthless druggies cross into our country we should shot to kill and get rid of the trash.

man, every once in a while i read in this politics forum.....and man its just too funny. this is where the real brains hang out. no, theres no DRUGGIES in this country. i wonder why all those mexicans are smuggling drugs in. if they don't they'll start robbing pharmacies too....wait, a ton of people (here) are already hooked on the LEGAL crap too and already steal from the pharmacies! WE TAKE GREAT CARE OF THE DRUGGIES.....theres no drug problem here!!!!! everyone gets them....lol. last time i went to a nascar race i didn't see guys puking and passing out. people don't abuse drugs in this country..............

I've never been and I never will go to Mexico. I've traveled to a lot of places but I just never wanted to go to Mexico.

legalize drugs. offer a government option to buy drugs. watch the drug wars die as the price of the drugs go down.

If the government buys drugs like you want them to how are they going to help pay for your health insurance under this new crappy health insurance bill that passed. Thats right according to you lets punish the healthy person and make them pay more for no reason other than to benefit you. Is the government going to pay to send my son to college? Probably not. So why should a healthy person get punished to help pay for your health insurance just because you have a pre existing condition. As you also said you care about yourself well guess what all I care about is myself my son and wife. I could care less if your wanting pity for you or help with your health insurance premium because you have a pre existing condition.

What does legalizing drugs have to do with the healthcare debate? For that matter, what does it have to do with mexican tourism??

i think they should legalize drugs for several reasons. one, it would hurt the drug cartels, two it would help budgets as the need for jail space and guards would drop dramatically, and three-the money made by taxing the stuff would add to tax revenue.

and like dala said, what does legalizing marijuana, etc, have to do with the health care debate?
