If you send tools and seeds insisting they feed themselves
I've read articles about fertile land and orchards going to waste because they can't make anything on their produce....they are all up here! I don't think it's a problem for a lot of Mexicans to feed themselves. A lot of it is just the yearn for more stuff. After all, they see American television and all the "stuff." I read one article about a woman who had a refrigerator and dining room set, and all the modern stuff in a run down shack with a dirt floor. They were stealing the electricity. The article talked about all the "stuff" they had bought on the money "send from the US." It also stated they spent a lot of money on "junk food."
