My guess would be that some people could take offense that are a few negative comments regarding Mexicans/Mexico and perhaps people from there (ie, not speaking English). Not saying I found it offensive, but it's just a guess.

What is funny though is that while these 10 things would be true years ago (reasons to get a new bank), our banking system is probably not any better health-wise than banks in Mexico right now. I don't know if Mexican banks are getting government money to stay afloat

I have read that many illegal aliens who came up here for work have gone back home because they were not getting enough work because of our weak economy. Don't have any statistics on that though.
