Mexico - The Scoop

 

Of the top 10 countries visited by U.S. citizens, only Mexico has a State Department advisory for travelers. What can you say about a country that's rapidly becoming one of Mercedes-Benz's biggest markets and yet a full quarter of the population lives in extreme poverty? Mexico is where the Third World runs smack into the First World-like putting Mogadishu next to Santa Barbara, with a 1,820-mile border between them. Tell any red-blooded American he's gotta stay here for more than a week, and he'll be scrambling over the chain-link fence and dashing for Escondido. Even in the far south, where Mexico blends seamlessly into Guatemala, there is turmoil, where you can seamlessly blend into a shallow grave.
