A BRIEF HISTORY OF JEWS IN MEXICO

Gene Whitman

Hi Mel…enjoyed your article on Mexican Jews. I have met Mexican Jews in San Miguel who have recently converted because they “ have always felt deep down not Catholic.” Their families predate the late 19th and early 20th century immigrations. Are you aware of any publications discussing this? Stands to reason that more “hidden Jews” came to Nuevo Mexico, given the combination of the Inquisition and the opportunities in the new world. Thx and regards, Gene Whitman M.D.

THUNDER ON THE RIGHT – FEBRUARY 2013

Charlotte

So let me get this straight: rich countries have ‘food stamps’, poor countries don’t. I know that ‘cause’ and ‘effect’ are complicated statistical creations, but how about a list of ‘rich’ countries without food stamps that prove you can be a rich country without providing a system that can be systemically abused? Because what I see is that rich countries are willing to give a leg up to people who need it, even if it means helping the people who don’t.

Countries without social safety nets tend to rank lower on the economic development scale. Although certainly practices of fraud need to be looked at I don’t think Canada needs to take lessons from the USA on economics, foreign policy or creating a proper social safety net.
