>Come on, CJ, when do the wealthy and the people in power share that power and wealth willingly? The '40s and the '60s in the US? I don't know what you mean by the '40s and the '60's but I can't think of one instance where our freedoms, the American way of life were gotten easily. A revolutionary war was fought, a civil war, and many long and arduous fights to gain freedoms and equal rights for women, children and minorities in this country. And every inch of the way the wealthy and the powerful tried to stop that expansion of freedom. Mexico has not had the same history for any number of reasons. And what I do know of their culture, it has much different standards and values then the American culture. So much so that when I moved from LA to Seattle I went through a minor culture shock.
