David Marcoe is right. Such an event will cause a Mass Exodus. Remember the mass Refugee crisis during/after Katrina.

Now imagine that x1,000,000 and only a FEW of them speak English.

Now take some Aspirin.

Assuming everything goes according to plan, the final results would yield a beneficial long term economic relationship. However, whether it would be an actual net economic stimulus is in question. It would likely “prime the pump,” but the government expenditures alone might offset it. Besides, it’s insane, either on moral or prudential grounds, to spark a country’s collapse for the nominal possibility of en economic bump, which doesn’t even begin to cover the structural problems with in the economy.

And whats more awesome. We are moving down that way. Sighhhhhh…hey stay on your side of the flipping border and duke it out. Have at it. Leave us outta it.

That’s precisely the attitude that will get us into the most trouble. They won’t stay across the border. Refugees will stream across. We need to be proactive, pick a side when chaos or civil war breaks out, and then hammer the bloody hell out of everything, like in Iraq and Afghanistan. Once the country’s pacified after a few weeks, we roll in with the Navy CBs and the Army Corps of Engineers, do an Iraq lite, and be out of there in six to eight months.
