World's richest man from: Mexico!

[Ali G. 37]

He is the son of Lebanese migrants to Mexico. This made my day. So we have people talking from the buttocks that there is no hope in Mexico. Evidently what's happening in Mexico is the same thing slowly happening here. The rich are mega rich and the poor are dirt poor.

Nevertheless, there you have it, the son of immigrants to Mexico, became the richest man in the world.

Mexico has a high income inequality but there's not much of threat from the poor to the status quo. They just point north and tell em if you don't like it, head to El Norte. Mexico- Love it or Leave it.

Of course. Thanks to the naive American and the supreme court, our taxes are used to literally give them a free lunch, all while services to American kids are cut back. Numerous schools throughout America now have empty classrooms because we cannot afford to pay the teachers. Apparently this generosity for a foreign nation's poor is now deemed progress and compassion. Yes, even as the American quality of life is flushed down the toilet.

Too bad there aren't any happy people in Mexico. Even if he is the richest man in the world, he still isn't Australian.
