The Source of the Problem

Trump has got to realize that the problem isn’t with Mexico but with Americans. If he truly believe in his America First motto on his stupid red hats, he must realize that it is Americans that are the source of his own statement about Mexicans and his reason for building a wall. Trump famously said, ”They are bringing drugs, they’re bringing crime, they’re rapists” speaking about Mexicans. He must realize that the reality of the situation is that there are more Americans   bringing drugs from Mexico into the country hidden in their cars, crime is being committed in America because of the thriving desire to take drugs and that most rapes in America are committed by fellow Americans. The weapons used in crimes are made by American gun manufactures. The problem is here in America on this side of the border.
Yes, Mexico needs help in controlling the country but we all know that money talks everywhere. In Mexico one of the most profitable crops is the Northwestern Mexico beautiful red flower poppy seed plant that provides the material for opium and heroin. Crops very much in demand in America that are worth a lot of money. Trump’s America First focus must do   more to get people off of drugs then there wouldn’t be such a profitable demand in Mexico. Instead Trump thinks it is better to spend millions of dollars in hiring ICE Agents, cops whose job is to round up any Mexican they can find to deport. Now food prices have gone up in America because our food is rotting on the vines without Mexicans to harvest our food. We had Mexicans in this country who paid taxes, worked in our farms for low wages and were happy to do so. Now many of the people thrown back into Mexico are working hard in the opium plant growing fields harvesting opium to be sold to Americans. Our drug trade is growing.
Poppy is the raw material for heroin. The gum from the poppy buds is processed into heroin. Trump has the crowds in his re-election rallies chanting ‘Build That Wall” meanwhile it is well known that there are elaborate tunnels equipped with motorcycles dug under the border also bringing drugs to America. Most of the people who approach the borders are poor women and children or those desperate to be away from drugs, crimes and rapists. They desperately want a better life. The problem is America’s endless desire for drugs. Now that Trump has alienated the Mexican government crime is getting worse in Mexico that even the beautiful resorts in places like Acapulco are being ruined with violence and crime. American’s are no longer welcomed there anymore and it is too unsafe for most people to visit the beautiful resorts in Mexico.
Now Mexico is a living hell with a spike in drugs, violence and crime especially towards Americans. We arrested the king pen El Chapo, but now smaller gangs have taken control and the gang violence is more powerful than the Mexican police. Should America ignore this border country or should we be doing more to curb our dependence on drugs ruining our minds and bodies and help the Mexican government take control over the lucrative drug industry there? Do you think that if we helped make Mexico a better place to live that less people would be storming our borders into America? All over the world there is a refugee crisis simply because people must leave the places they used to call home because of unsafe conditions not because they want to start all over with nothing in another place. I like the quote from the American movie called The Wizard of OZ , “There’s no place like Home”. Help Mexicans to love their homes and help Americans to get off drugs. HELP!!!
