I have always said. If republicans could build their own city it would look like Monterey.

Funny. Because Monterrey is the most affluent and well run city in Mexico and I will argue in the top 5 in Latin America.

Or course the conservatism in the area also has its downsides. Classism and racism is rampant in MY

Yup. But I will say that the possibilities to “pull yourself up by the bootstraps” are enough to make any republican salivate like a labrador retriever looking at a Pop Tart. There are few cities in the country where being poor is a choice. If you want a job in MTY, you can get it, as long as you can show up on time and sober to a factory 5-6x a week.

I don't believe that hating others is right. Just because I view republicans as being bad stewards of our planet, the economy and people, it does not mean that I hate them. Rather, it means that I view them as unfit to represent us in any capacity.
