Chicanos amuse me when they wax poetic about "The good ol' days when Mexico owned the US". None of them are old enough to remember those days, most have never even lived in Mexico. They also forget that the rose colored glasses of nostalgia sometimes obscure the eyes to the truth. Before Mexico gained independance it was a territory of Spain for hundreds of years, a period marked by genocide of native peoples, rape of resources, oppressive authoritarian governments, and a populace reduced to peons comparable to the serfs of fuedal Europe. Yeah...wonderful time. After that the country entered it's current period, one marked by corruption, oppressive authoritarian governent, crushing poverty, and a populace still reduced to peon status. So what makes idiots like him think that they could do any better? History has repeatedly shown that no incarnation of Hispanic culture has ever been able to flourish for long, all have degenerated one way or another. As for the clown in the video, if Mexico is so damned great then why doesn't he live there?
