¡ASK A MEXICAN!

Dear Gabacha: From a lifetime of savings and probably family loans; probably not (simple economics, chica); yes (it’s the risk that goes with paying a stranger thousands of dollars for entering the United States); yes (that’s why they do it again); maybe (probably not the killing, but for sure the imprisonment and maltreatment); hypocrisy (but blame that on the Mexican government, not the people); and because the United States is the greatest damn nation on Earth — after Zacatecas, of course.
GOOD MEXICAN OF THE WEEK! Keep sending in your choices, gente! Books, CDs, professors, non-profits, hot chicks — the more, the merrier!
Ask the Mexican at themexican@askamexican.net, be his fan on Facebook, follow him on Twitter, or ask him a video question at youtube.com/askamexicano!
