Five images of MEXICO.

Yes, sadly but true this is an image that I can not shake from my mind when contemplating about Mexico. The reality is that about 24 million people live in extreme poverty with of course the majority being children. Mexico is advancing in other areas which is good but I would hope that this would have a greater impact on the poor. Geographically this hits closer to home, yet this is a world wide crisis and not just Mexico's problem. We are fortunate not to experience such severe poverty as is in a third world country. It is vastly different from the scale of poverty we may see in the U.S.
