They currently lack the infrastructure and a plan to build it.

Put those in place and there's no reason that Mexico couldn't become an important player, ideally positioned as it is at the "chokepoint" of the Western hemisphere.
"People ask me to predict the future, when all I want to do is prevent it. Better yet, build it. Predicting the future is much too easy, anyway. You look at the people around you, the street you stand on, the visible air you breathe, and predict more of the same. To hell with more. I want better." ~ Ray Bradbury

It is in the Western world, its social structure is less racist than the USA's. Mexico's social structure lacks of money but not cohesion.

Not when at least half of the Mexican people are illiterate and uneducated.

Certainly not when at least half of them live without electricity or clean, running water.

Why do you think they all want to run "El Norte"? It is because life is so grim. We get the poorest of the poor and then their anchor babies become illiterate in two languages.

About the only thing they are excellent at is avoiding the use of any kind of birth control because their priests have them convinced they will go straight to hell if they do. Now tossing your starving kids out into the streets to be is OK. So is joining a drug gang and participating in the killings and the kidnappings and whatever else they get up to.

Mexico has wealth in its oil and silver mines. Only a small number of families own any of that. There is a small middle class in the various cities but it is not a growing middle class.

It is, however, a super power when it comes to Drug Cartels. Our AMerican druggies have made them all very rich and very violent. So has our government which has allowed them to cash in on smuggling illegals and pumping their families for every dollar they make.

No way do we ever want it as a state in the USA. We would get stuck with all those assholes and they are not about to give up their very profitable lives of crime.

Re: Time for Mexico to become a superpower...
Three facts everybody should know:


Mexico has plenty of natural resources and crop land, maybe even more than the USA

Mexico has a higher average standard of living than the USA if you include the income of the "ricos"; the five billionare families that run the place

Mexico was the first socialist state

Re: Time for Mexico to become a superpower...
The US was only a superpower because they were still developing as a nation. Now that the US has developed we have seen it peak and are experiencing the downfall of a country that didn't have much to offer the world anyways. It is a culture based on greed that never learned to be happy with what one has.


Mexico on the other hand still has to develop as a nation, and once it does it will cater to the other Latin American countries. It is a culture that is not based on greed, go to Mexico and you will see how happy the people are considering how far worse they are than Americans.

Such a corrupt country with lack of education. Too much greed would keep Mexico from becoming much of anything but a drug dealer.

I'm not saying it couldn't happen, but I'd be surprised if it did. Mexico's government lacks the strength and organization that it would take to be a superpower in my opinion. Also, the majority of the people are poor. When I say poor I don't mean like poor Americans either. The poorest Americans are still "livin the life" compared to Mexicans. Even poor people over here have apartments, cars, food, etc. My husband went over there on a mission trip and told me about the cardboard villages. He said it was devistating. Their leaders don't seem to have that obsession for control like most superpowers do. Why do you think the US is so powerful? It's because they're so obsessive that everything is done with a fine tooth comb.

Re: Time for Mexico to become a superpower...
You laugh, but here's how it will play out.

In the early 2020s China and America will come to blows over the South China Sea, and the naval/air war will quickly go America's way. Starved of resources by embargo, riven by internal dissent and revolt, the doomed regime in Beijing will resort to their "Assassin's Mace" superweapon - a bio-engineered fungus-like spore, delivered by hypersonic missiles to hundreds of America cities. 75% of your population will die overnight, and many more in the smaller towns will starve or freeze over winter. America will be finished as a nation.

Of course, the captains of America's Ohio class submarines will reign nuclear fire down on China's cities, killing hundreds of millions more and setting them back a hundred years, but they'll pull through, eventually.

But in first few decades following the war, Mexicans will be in prime position to recolonise many of the depopulated southern states, and reincorporate them back into a Greater Mexico.

Re: Time for Mexico to become a superpower...
when I first read this, I thought of a earlier video clip I've seen today on motherless website where Mexican drug cartels chain sawed one guys head, while the other had cut his head off with a knife.

Mexico is a shit hole, who wants to go there ? recently one tourist child has been killed over there.

Mexico is a country that is like Pakistan. expect in Mexico drug cartels run the show not the military .


so who wants go into a shit hole ?
