Also, the US economy is so much stronger, and it's hard for Mexico to compete. For example, they grow corn, but they actually pay less for US grown corn, so that hurts their economy. slbless https://padlet.com/slbless/wig6bdrptain1d72/wish/1887689679 2021-11-13 01:05:28 UTC https://padlet.com/slbless/wig6bdrptain1d72/wish/1887689679 Kate said that she would like to "hang out" with Rico because he is different than her. He is adventuresome, and she thought that would be fun for her to hang out with him. slbless https://padlet.com/slbless/wig6bdrptain1d72/wish/1887690391 2021-11-13 01:06:26 UTC https://padlet.com/slbless/wig6bdrptain1d72/wish/1887690391 Vinny thought that Victor was a much better person than Rico because Rico lied on several occasions. He didn't care for Rico because he took too many risks and wasn't thinking through his choices. slbless https://padlet.com/slbless/wig6bdrptain1d72/wish/1887691276 2021-11-13 01:07:39 UTC https://padlet.com/slbless/wig6bdrptain1d72/wish/1887691276 Sarah talked about how she didn't realize how hard it would be to go to the US from Mexico. Some people jump on trains, hike through deserts and risk their lives to get to America. slbless https://padlet.com/slbless/wig6bdrptain1d72/wish/1887692427 2021-11-13 01:09:13 UTC https://padlet.com/slbless/wig6bdrptain1d72/wish/1887692427 Aidan thought that the friendship that Victor and Rico had was similar to the friendship of the boys in The Outsiders. They both showed loyalty to each other in extreme circumstances. slbless https://padlet.com/slbless/wig6bdrptain1d72/wish/1887694571 2021-11-13 01:11:55 UTC https://padlet.com/slbless/wig6bdrptain1d72/wish/1887694571 Amur mentioned that the faith that Victor had was what helped him through the tough times. He prayed to God along his journey, and he also found strength in his family who he was very close with from Mexico. slbless https://padlet.com/slbless/wig6bdrptain1d72/wish/1887695517 2021-11-13 01:13:05 UTC https://padlet.com/slbless/wig6bdrptain1d72/wish/1887695517 Cortez commented about how he would have done the same thing as Victor did in order to help his family if he were in Victor's position. Although it would be hard, he thinks he would try to do what it takes to help his family. slbless https://padlet.com/slbless/wig6bdrptain1d72/wish/1887697595 2021-11-13 01:15:38 UTC https://padlet.com/slbless/wig6bdrptain1d72/wish/1887697595
