Exile Nation: The Plastic People of the Tijuana River canal
>*"We are all immigrants to this land, the only difference is that some of us have been here longer. But none of us came here 'legally.'"* What? I think Charles Shaw has been sampling the drug inventory down in the Tijuana River channel.— February 26, 2013 10:46 p.m.

Rhon for office?
The US pulled his visa because of his criminal associations, so now he cannot travel to the US. When Hank was mayor of Tijuana, the TJ police were so crooked, a tourist would get a ticket (mordida) for looking cross-eyed.— November 19, 2012 8:31 p.m.
Newly issued Mexican immigration regulations are bad news for Americans
Sorry wrong reference. The corrected reference would be at Lineamientos, Tramite 5: Visa de Residencia Temporal: Requisito IV: Section d, Item 1, iii. and Item 2, iii. http://dof.gob.mx/nota_detalle.php?codigo=5276966… This adds an additional 100 days minimum wage for the spouse of a couple seeking a temporary or permanent visa. This would make the monthly income requirement of a couple seeking a temporary resident visa in Mexico 500 days, or $2,365 per month and the income requirement for a permanent resident visa would be 600 days, or $2,835 per month. This still puts a visa far out of reach of most people living on Social Security.— November 12, 2012 11:26 p.m.
Newly issued Mexican immigration regulations are bad news for Americans
The reference to the additional 50% for spouses comes directly from Article 41 of the Guidelines for Immigration Procedures, issued November 8, 2012. If you say it is not an additional 50% for a spouse, then it is even worse. The income requirements would apply separately to each spouse, doubling the requirements. You seem to selectively ignore bad news. For instance, in saying things will be cheaper, you failed to state that a permanent resident in Mexico would likely have to put a Mexican license plate on his vehicle, incurring very expensive import duties, in the thousands of dollars. Furthermore, once a vehicle has a Mexican license plate, it can only remain in the US for one year at a time. If enforced, I predict most Americans retired in Mexico will be unable to meet the income or financial asset test, this will negatively impact the Mexican real estate market as these people are forced to leave. There is no good news here, it's all bad.— November 12, 2012 2:04 p.m.
