“Tourism is the key to Mexico`s economic development. It generates wealth for other economic activities and for all socioeconomic groups… This requires consistent long-term policy measures in marketing, facilitation and in the promotion and encouragement of investment.”
Federal Support For Tourism Infrastructure
The national agency, Fonatur, was founded 30 years ago to provide master planning and funding for large tourism developments in Mexico. Fonatur typically purchases large tracts of land, establishes infrastructure, clears title, and invites international investors, such as large resort hotels, to participate as development partners. Every one of these projects has been highly successful. Cancun, for example, continues to be one of the most popular vacation destinations in the world.

Why do Americans hate Mexicans, yet they travel to Mexico and go on vacation? Should Americans be considered illegally there, therefore be deported and be treated like the Mexicans get treated in America?
OK, first of all, I am a U.S. Citizen. I know that a lot of you complain about illegal immigrants taking your jobs, but how was that? How did they take your jobs? Maybe it’s because they were never your jobs to begin with. I bet you people who are citizens wouldn’t even think about working in the fields in the summer heat. I know I wouldn’t! My point is that many immigrants (illegal or not) suffer to get here and Americans don’t have to suffer to go to Mexico or any other country. I own a business and I think I wouldn’t even have my business if it wasn’t for immigrants. My business makes thousands of dollars in taxes each year. I know immigrants have to pay taxes when they get their pay check right?
