Entirely because you continue to "argue" in a nonsensical and futile manner against givens and knowns.this long back and forth is cluttering
Nothing is convincing me otherwise.but you seem convince on Hard power and not appreciating Soft Power.
That has nothing to do with hard power. Actually, the world's most powerful and advanced nations tend to have low birth rate while poor developing nations, agrarian societies tend to have the highest birth rates.Mexico population has increased over 5 times since post world war Period while US population has increased a little over twice including increasing share of Hispanic.
I hope it does and I hope Mexico takes back every territory from the US but it does nothing for this topic.if this trend continue Mexico grab more business than Mexico will be the dominant economic power in USMCA
If Mexico becomes the dominant economic power, it will have the greatest amount of hard power. Soft power will, of course follow with the hard power but it's just a side effect... and this is just your imagination.and this will translate into Soft Power of Hispanics inside US.
No. Demographics aren't soft power. You are not educated enough to debate this. You still cannot define soft power in a coherent way.it is the Soft Power of demographics
The rest of the sentence is correct.driving the hard power of economics which is driving soft power.
Investments, business, money are all hard power.Mexico already bought Texas Shell Refinery. so it is not like only US is investing in Mexico. Mexico is part of OPEC+ but not OPEC but recently OPEC SG visited Mexico so I am sure Arabs are paying attention to US demographics as Arabs have investments and buy aviation products made in America south. The rest of stuff is too complicated.
What the hell is this supposed to be?
You know damn well nothing he writes has anything to do with the discussion.Does the book fair have anything to do with the discussion? Asking because I have not been following closely.
Me: Mexico has a lower PPP per capita than the US proving that its quality of life and resources per person are lower than the US. Furthermore, interviews show that Mexicans themselves cite economic reasons as the top driving factor to enter the US.
PMC: It's soft power! Mexico has expensive hotel! Mexico has dentists and airlines, that means it's a wealthy, powerful country! Americans live there. It has FDI investment increase. How you know Mexicans going to US aren't all other people in disguise fleeing from the law? Mexico population growth is higher. That's soft power! Mexico soft power controlling US, got concessions from America and made up the caravans. How you know Americans don't sneak into Mexico to do menial labor? Where's the data? If there's no data, that means they do! 5% immigration rate is drop in the bucket! Anything under 50% round down to 0!
