MEXICOWANDERER
Jun 09, 2013Explorer
I would have faith in the "Development Brings Prosperity" thesis except too many hotels in Mexico are of foreign ownership. Oh the name on the paper is Mexican but the money goes offshore in too many cases.
I could give a ratz burro about wealthy Mexicans but when they shut off access to the average Mexicano that gets my goat. The people who exist 360 days a year to have five days at the playa during semana santa should never have their rights purchased out from under them. Big inclusive resorts are designed from putting green to bedspread to keep 99.99% of their clientele's dinero in-house. By hook, by crook. Go to Los Cabos and see. Go to Can't-Cun or Puerto Vallarta or for god's sake to Barra de Navidad to the monstrosity Gran Bay out on the peninsula. The maids there make 125 pesos a day in a place with three hundred dollar a day rooms.
