    No offense to Mexico

    But the US has become the Mexico of the First World, and the GOP (and many Democrats) are working hard to hasten that role. We're the place with the cheap labor, the non-union labor, the place without national healthcare, where higher education is increasingly only available to the richest few -- banana republicanism, basically.
