In a surprise announcement, President Vicente Fox of Mexico has revealed that his country has solved its problem of the United States, requesting the annexation as a province of China. As a result of its new status, a multitude of chores will be available.
He made the surprise announcement, not during his recent visit to America, but soon after his return to Mexico.
Mexicans by the millions applauded the decision, throwing parties at the national level, with shouts of "Viva Mexico!", "Long live China!" And the air rang with the triumphant neologism, "MexiChina, Ole!"
In his address to the nation of Mexico, President Fox said: "Today I announce that our nation has become a province of China proud As a result, we will have more jobs just to keep our hard-working people employed at home. - And jobs much better than they are migrant workers in the U.S. "
He went on to explain: "Now, it's time for American companies to invest in Mexico, to the same extent that invest in the rest of China. Finally, it is time for them to enjoy all the cheap labor right next door. Finally, it is time for Mexico to have many new factories and, over time, as a big trade imbalance with America, like the rest of China. Finally, the label "Made in Mexico" will come to stand for everything from knives and forks for Nike. "
The Chinese were happy to offer Mexican, noting, "acquiring Mexico as a province is even better to conquer Taiwan. There is no cheap labor there, and since it is in the U.S. backyard we will be able to save on shipping costs. So we will be able to produce and deliver even more fitting that we were able to work with our own cheap goods. "
As expected, U.S. firms have responded immediately to the possibility of outsourcing production to Mexico. As the CEO of an American company that was a contender early in China said, "It 's absolutely wonderful to know that there is so much cheap labor so close to home. I never realized until Mexico became part China. You can be assured production orders so that we will soon go down to Mexico! "
President Fox, when pressed by a reporter about how he thinks Mexican workers can compete with Chinese workers in terms of willingness to work long hours for low pay, he replied: "What do you think of the whole problem of proof? We have millions of workers who are so dedicated to risk their lives to earn a pittance relative north of the border. "
Washington's response was clearly negative. President Bush said: "Mexico is in this hemisphere and has no business being part of China. Furthermore, we were on track to solve the problem with the border fence and the National Guard."
A reporter asked if the fence and the presence of the National Guard may have helped to push Mexico to China.
"Of course not," said Bush. "We all know that the fence does not constitute an obstacle to the Mexican-American relations. It would only keep out people who are not climbing fast, and this is only a small minority." Then, quoting poetry, as he often does, he said "And, as Robert Frost said, 'Good fences make good neighbors'."
Democrats were quick to chastise the president and Republicans everywhere.
Senator Edward Kennedy exclaimed, "I can not tell you how I upset about it. If we had more wise guidance of the White House, we decided to advise our corporations long ago that there was no need to export jobs unclear China, when they could find inexpensive labor law over the border in Mexico. "
Senator Charles Schumer, always prescient, he said, "I knew that the fence would not be good for the Mexican-American relations. As I said during the Senate debate on immigration, the fence is really just as laws permit the gun. The criminals are not aligned for them. They just go get a gun. and intent to become Mexican immigrants find a way to scamper over the wall and slipped past the guard. "
Republican John McCain, right after getting it the hottest tickets in New York's New School, said: "I think the fact that Mexico has become a province of China is probably not a good thing for the long term and I'm not sure that it is also good in the short term. Of course, we do not want Mexico to be part of America, or that, given the level of illegal immigration that we have, is actually a species of what is happening. "
Dick Cheney has been firmly against the annexation, stating: "This change of nationality is unacceptable. And once you go something like, you can not tell where it will land on. Next thing you know Venezuela, Peru, Cuba and will be flying Chinese flag. We must convince the Mexican government to retract. If the president asks, I'll fly there and say to President Fox of these things myself. "
President Bush did not immediately comment on the offer of Cheney, perhaps remembering the trouble created exuberant diplomatic vice president during his trip through the nations of Eastern Europe, when he openly criticizes Russian President Vladimir Putin on democracy to relapse .
Meanwhile, illegal immigrants in the United States began to flow back to Mexico, so you can be among the first in line for the establishment of many new jobs will be available soon. In a last desperate attempt to appease the Mexican government, President Bush seems to indicate that he may cancel the construction of walls answer to the problem of America. Since the wall is no longer necessary, there was some chance that the amendment would meet the approval of the Senate.
An American who opposed immigration applauded the change. "The Mexicans are leaving the city as they can get their things together. What do I care if Mexico was to become part of China to make them return to their country?"
Another American, however, had a different approach. "I think it's a shame we did not think of exporting jobs to Mexico when he was still the land of tacos and enchiladas, no egg rolls, too."
