Slouching Toward Servitude

Mexico

Part of Bush's present thrust may have something to do with his
apparent obsession with Hispanics. This happens to interact with
Mexican president Vincente Fox's presently unsolvable problem. Over
the centuries Mexico has produced no thriving economy. On the other
hand, Mexicans reproduce at rate that chokes them to death with each
other. Mexico City had a population of about 8.5 million [closer to 15
million - Zola] in the mid 1990s and there are numerous other Mexican
cities with populations of over one million within an annual national
population increase of 2.1% despite massive flight to the United
States or other areas. That rate means an approximate increase of
160,000 people each year in Mexico City alone, which the area has
little economic capacity to assimilate. During parts of the 90s the
real economic growth rate was in the order of -6 to -7% with an
inflation rate of about 50% according to page 280 of the 1998 Time
Almanac. As of 2002 the total population of Mexico is a little over
100,000,000 in a depleted area perhaps twice the size of Texas
containing vast marginally inhabitable areas. There are many areas the
size of Rhode Island without roads or anything else. Corruption and
political instability are a way of life.

Mexico is now dead in the water in a condition that is unimprovable
within any short period of time. It seems not in the nature of the
corruption, the culture, or the political system to facilitate
development and improvement.

At this point, over the short period of time, the direction Mexico
needs to go is perfectly clear. Fox, and Mexico, need to export tens
of millions of Mexicans who are a problem as well as engulf and
utilize an external economy and welfare system. That means the easiest
direction for Mexico to pursue is to annex the states of California
and Texas, with Arizona and New Mexico along in the ride, then send
tens of millions of Mexicans there and beyond. Mexico needs an exodus
of at least 25,000,000 people per ten year period to even maintain its
present sick condition.

The Immigration Problem

If there were open borders probably 70% of the Mexican population
would vacate Mexico proper and move North. This opening and an
eventual annexation has been proposed in a Mexican national political
movement which seeks to reclaim the Mexican boundaries pre 1836.
Marxist representation and organizing sites for this movement can be
found on the internet under an Aztlan search. This movement is serious
and spreading through the grassroots like a prairie fire. The inferior
quality of thought patterns within this movement are a diagnostic
signal of something I would personally not welcome into America and
have undoubtedly played a substantial part in putting Mexico in the
condition it is in. The degree to which such patterns already exist
within the American general population seriously threatens the
continued existence of the nation. More of it will be hopelessly
unsurvivable.

If it were possible to migrate out 60% of the population of Mexico,
Mexico might, temporarily, become a workable and livable place for
those remaining.

What is well into fruition is a reconquest and conversion of
Southwestern United States by force of numbers and occupation. After a
given proportion of local American populations are Mexican immigrants,
the legal and administration of various American states will be
overwhelmed and Mexicanized or coopted while momentum of the social
demography will work to smuggle more illegal immigration as well as
subvert attempts to stop it. This will, in practice, eliminate the
borders between the countries in certain areas and allow unlimited
mass migration to pour through those points. From thence the
population can redistribute the wealth or anything else through
participatory democracy. That essentially parallels what happened in
South(ern) Africa, which subsequently became a hellhole. The African
lesson should be heeded. In 10 years California and Texas will become
de facto socialist provinces of Mexico that have massive national
political leverage in the United States. These provinces will have
numerous senators, representatives, and enormous numbers of electoral
votes. This will, in turn, provide unresistable leverage in accessing
and redistributing individual incomes in the remainder of the United
States through input into taxation and direction of expenditures.

In one sense what is occurring is a reversal of the process, or
reapplication of the process, that created the Western United States
through mass migration. There are several important differences. While
Mexico was economically, militarily, and administratively unable to
control the immigration and loss of the area during the 1800s, the
United States government under prevalent sociopolitical philosophy is
now unwilling to stop the process. Furthermore, as the process expands
in a wave, the remainder of America will be forced to support it,
financially and otherwise, through welfare, social services, and
imposed theoretical cultural pluralism. So-called Anglos will finance
their own conquest, destruction, and enslavement. The entire scenario
will be a portrayal of hilarious and somewhat sadistic comic stupidity
if it were not reality.

The American Anglo world is now so immobilized, beaten down, lacking
in pride, and guilt-ridden that it is nearly eager to commit economic,
cultural, and racial suicide. The basic core of the country that made
it great has become so diluted as to make it ineffectual.

All this seems to have the blessing of George Bush.

Why Bush Will Lose

Going back, "This was viewed as politically advantageous to Mr. Bush,
who has long courted Hispanic voters." If Bush expects to harvest any
political advantage from this, he is very naive. It is a naivete
typical of those accustomed to the status and privileges of elitism
assumed on both sides of social boundaries. Bush is living in the
past. Back in Texas all that was required was that he spoke a little
broken Spanish to the minority peasants, then hop on a plane to attend
a birthday party or family diversion at the family private playground
in Kennebunkport, Maine. Mexican Hispanics are unconsciously treated
as serfs, and fawn like them. As a politically powerless minority,
they haven't had much choice but to play the game. But this political
courtship has been fantasy island.

Bush is temporarily useful to Mexico and immigrants, and also to
advancement of political left/counterculture destructive strategy, as
a dupe. The political powers that will arise out of increased Mexican
population will be more radical aggressive Hispanic equivalents to, or
beyond that of, Kwesei Mfume and Jesse Jackson -and with a majority, or
close to a majority, of the vote in various areas. There will be no
further need for the humility or obsequiousness that Bush is
accustomed to and counting on. Temperance, caution, and moderation
will no longer be a necessity upon achieving force of numbers and
political control. Mexicans won't need to grovel before Bush's
pandering to them in Spanish. They have their own people who speak the
language much better, thank you. It's in their easiest and best, even
necessary, interest to obtain the gains available through
social(istic) redistribution or regulation. If George Bush wants to
appeal to this he'll need to do so by tightening the authoritarian
socialistic and countercultural stranglehold in America. Bush will
still lose. Just as the first liar always loses in a conversational
contest among liars, Bush will be outbid by more radical leftists in
his attempt to cash in on what he has done. The remainder of the
country, which already doesn't show up to vote in their silent protest
of being politically disenfranchised from consideration, will be
further disenfranchised and strangled. Within the virtual reality of
American politics, they are no longer in the loop. Unless there is
formation of a new political party the Perot candidacy in 1992, which
produced the highest proportion of voter turnout in recent years, will
have been their last gasp.

In 10 years California and Texas will become de facto socialist
provinces of Mexico with politically enforced economic support from
the people in the United States. The United States as it was once
known, and once flourished, will slowly dissolve and disappear. The
only way to stop it is to build a wall between Mexico and the United
States and repel anyone attempting to climb over it by all means
necessary while expelling all illegals. If there needs to be family
reunification, it can be achieved by sending family members South back
into Mexico to find it. Mexican migration can occur to sparsely
populated areas of South America. Twenty-five years ago emissaries

from the Brazilian government were in Pennsylvania attempting to

recruit Amish to settle in land opening up in Brazil. Mexicans could
theoretically settle there, but Brazil doesn't particularly encourage
Mexicans.

George Bush's good friend Vincente Fox is already antipitating the
outcome and tightening the screws. He is bringing legal action against
the United States and American employers in international court to
force payment of minimum wages to Mexican nationals in America as well
as force payment of retroactive reparations. He does not demand or
guarantee the same pay levels in Mexico. This is but the beginning.
