Lots of posts responding to a troll, and a few of the "Mexico is just a 3rd world country" trolls got to post their rants too. Best to ignore them and they will crawl back under their bridges, if the bridges weren't made in Mexico.(great pun huh?)
Yah I caught that too. One thing though. Even if the old first, second, third world nation system was used now (and its not), Mexico wouldn't qualify as a third world nation anyway. Under the new system, Mexico and Brazil are considered newly industrialized nations under the new rating system. The categories are now developing nation (with three sub categorys) newly industrialized and developed nation. There are variations on the names used. Small point but some interesting reading. The whole thing is kinda goofy and I think politics play into the labels given. Interesting point, average lifespan in Mexico is expected to surpass the USA by 2050. Trivia stuff.
