Mexico to Construct Border Fence

The Mexican government today announced the start of construction of a fence
extending from Tijuana to Jaurez along the border between Mexico and the United States. The fence, 30 feet high, is in response to the United States' border fence that is 12 feet high.
"We can't be outdone by our neighbor to the north," Rojas y Gleisis. "If their going to put up a 12 foot Craftsman style wall, we'll just build a 30 foot Wallmart wall," he continued. "Besides, their wall is not really a wall. It's pock marked by tunnels, cut chain link, broken barb wire and graffiti. It is a sieve. The people of Mexico want and deserve better protection against the illegal immigration of Americans across the border."
The US wall, intended to prevent reverse migration from Mexico back to north Mexico and its states of California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas, has had the perverse effect of creating an exclusive enclave of luxury homes in the now walled communities of Tijuana and Juarez. Housing prices have skyrocketed along the border and nightly Americans can be seen sneaking across the border to buy property. The US has had to beef up it military presence to prevent this migration. Already millions have left decimating entire industries in the United States.
"Hell no one will clean my pool, mow my lawn, watch my kids, serve me fast food, dry clean my clothes, or wash my car. It's getting ridiculous. I haven't had a strawberry in months," harped John Franklin III of Greenwich, Connecticut. "Why just yesterday I got chest pains trying to take my trash out! We just can't have this going on anymore. Give me Guatemalans, Nicaraguans, Panamanians or Cubans, I don't care. Yes Cubans. That's it. Let's get Cubans. They make great cigars you know."
