How do you starve Mexico -- or force them to come over as cheap slaves? First, you ruin their agriculture by flooding Mexico with cheap (highly subsidized) U$ corn. Then, when they have become dependent on it, you raise the corn price thru the roof. ("Biodiesel" as a nice pretext... it sounds so philantropic...) Isn't Free Trade wonderful?
