The Mexican Red Cross has been fundraising for the past two weeks. People dressed as red crosses have been standing on corners with cans with slits in the lids. We've tossed in a peso or two but no more. No; we're not doing that any more. Now we're throwing in hundreds of pesos.Twice this week ambulances have been called to RVs here on my row (which houses only five occupied rigs). Both times people have been taken to the hospital in the next biggest city which is 60 miles away FOR FREE. Yep. Ambulance rides do not cost one centavo. A third world country with affordable--and sometimes free--health care.
No wonder so many North American residents live here illegally.
