Read in various Mexican Papers and Facebook posts about the terrible situations taking place in SMA and warnings to not go there, nor buy property there. People there are warned to shop, etc. in Queretaro. Seems the entire State of Guanajuato has become a dangerous place.

You are correct, nothing in this World is "free" not even "Free Medicare for All", "Free College Tuition", "Welfare", "Free Housing", etc.

The secret to that is to maintain a Primary Care doctor and easily establish appointments with them for a set time in the future. Our experience is about 2 months lead time, unless it is an emergency, then we get in sooner. Same applies to the Specialists, but we have enjoyed much less wait time with both, as getting on a "cancel" list has always allowed us to get something in about 10 days. YMMD, but we have been like this for almost the 11 years we have been on Medicare. Just a little planning and taking responsibility for your health care goes a LONG way.

Actually, the Economists I follow say that the World would do themselves a big favor for their economies if they were to follow the lead of the US on economic policy. US economic leadership and policies continue to impress and set new highs.

Agreed. NEVER (in Mexico, or anywhere else) offer any more info to officials than is absolutely necessary, as they often become confused and you will wind up regretting that you didn't give a quick and simple response to any question they ask you.Let them ask, don't volunteer !

The US economy is stronger than it has been in lots of years, it is the other countries who have been and are having trouble with their economies. Lots of people are praying for a recession and fabricating all kinds of statistics and "warning signs" to encourage people to get scared. They will try every trick they can imagine to gain power and control. Don't become a sheep. Snowyco is trying to add to those scare tactics.

My wife was listed as " Maria del Rosario" on many agencies in Mexico. She got a Notary to draw a paper and list maybe 8 different names she had been called by those different agencies and it said that they were all "Maria Rosario". We took that paper (time consuming) to each agency and they changed her name on their forms, and combined some, as they sometimes had 3 accounts for her with different names. Cost was 500 pesos for 3 official papers. She has a different name on her US passport than her Mexican passport, but never a problem in the US or Mexico.

But, not for those on the winning side. Only for those on the poor losers side !

Just trying to "sneak" it in "disguised" like you really care. LOL Why should you? No longer your Country and the people who live there make their own decisions, whether you like it or not. Reference their new Administration. LOL Why don't you tell us about how much you are helping the poor in the country where you live; that would maybe encourage more to do more here, instead of continually bitching about what the US is doing. Choose to not live with them, but can't live without them, huh? LOL Surely you can afford to sponsor many poor families and children, not just 1 or 2, or 3, full time. Let us hear it from you bitchers ! LOL

Interesting how common sense seems to "kick in" at different ages for different people, no?

I see why you want out of the US with the prospect of Socialism ahead, unless you are filthy rich, then you are among the elite that Socialism doesn't affect.

My wife says that the stores that sell "cheaper" bras don't allow, but the expensive stores do.

Just proved my point. Thanks.

Actually mine said it covered me for emergencies out of the US. YMMV

There is another one who can't alway seem to get her way, so thinks its ok to trash others.

Yep, that is a typical Libtard response. Your politics are showing. Can't resist that Trump bashing can you? Got that syndrome bad, don't you?

Not for most people over 65, with Medicare and an Advantage Plan. Basically no cost for us NOB.

One would certainly hope that is the case, which establishes how powerful at saving lives the vaccine is. Actually, deaths are rare, if non-existent, from the current vaccine. All these diseases are fairly common still in Latin America, but rare NOB.

The most disturbing part of this is that Mexico has been allowing those illegals to use Our country(those of us who have invested in gaining citizenship in Mexico) as a back door to the USA. That must not continue and apparently our current Mexican government believes that the administration NOB is serious with its threats to completely shut down the Border until the US Congress acts to put controls on these illegals, or Mexico steps up on enforcing our own laws on illegals in our country. The latter seems to be happening now. IMHO, AMLO is interested in a friendly, strong, and productive relation with the government NOB.

That is exactly the point! Your interpretation of what makes and does not make this Board viable is exactly that, your take. It certainly does not represent everyone who is on this Board, only those who enjoy putting down members, mods, etc. You have 2 choices, continue crying, or Block him. Up to you.

"I'm off this Board." How many posts ago did you say that? Mean what you say, man, or don't say it. Makes your credibility zero !

Why can't you just Block him? Too much trouble for you, or you just must have you way no matter what others think?

Hey, if JIT is a problem for you, it is YOUR fault, not the Board. All you have to do is BLOCK HIM and you will never read a post from him again. VERY SIMPLE. Trying to force your way on everyone on this Board does not let those who enjoy his banter have their say. If you gotta go, you gotta go.

I found (from personal experience) that getting an ice pack on the sting quickly stops the burning/stinging and takes care of the swelling. Certainly an antihistamine will benefit also. Remember, ICE is a very good friend for many injuries.

That is why, RV, people need to trust the advice of Sonia and Spencer when these questions are asked. Other "so called experts" just continue to create panic and confusion for "their personal enjoyment"? Shame on them, no?
