Hat Trick In El Big Sombrero
Why Mexico rocks this week.
Bribery in the Budget: Apparently, you need to throw some pesos into your monthly budgetary pie chart down south. Mexicans dropped over $2.5 billion in bribes in ’07. This was up over 40% from ’05. The total number of bribes came in at $197 million for the year which is nearly two bribes for every Mexican considering its population of 105 million. Bueno, muy bueno.
Kidnappings: TJ doctors walked out on their jobs for a day in protest. Protest over what? Rising health care costs? Insurance premiums? Slow governmental approval of new drugs? No, not so much. TJ doctors have become prime targets for kidnapping. TJ doctors are now taken for ransom at a rate of one doctor per week. Better cancel that tee time, boys.
Rising Employment: But, hell, time for some good news. Job opportunities might be on the rise down south. The Gulf drug cartel now openly advertises for current and former soldiers to abandon the military and join their ranks. The Gulf cartel is offering “good salary, food and family care.” Nice work. People person? Persuasive? Enjoy sales and closing deals? Then we have a career opportunity for you.
