Mexico: A country of the fabulously rich and the deprived poor



This is a video I found that included interesting facts about the "divided Mexico", in which half the population is living under the poverty line, while the other is thriving greatly. It is assumed that the illegal immigrants who cross the Mexican-American border are mostly the Mexicans who are the country's lower-class citizens.

Interesting Facts:

- 20% Mexicans live under the poverty line (Gonzalez family in 30 Days)

-10% Mexicans earn less than a dollar a day (converted from pesos)
