I was considering making that qualification (excluding states with significant resource extraction on a per capita basis), but thought it would be needlessly distracting considering that doesn't apply to Mexico, and I'm not sure there are states to which it would apply.

I'm guessing Equatorial Guinea

Camerus

Any way you want to spin it, a defeat in pitched battle is a debacle that raises serious questions about the ability of the Mexican government to enforce the law and its will, middle income country status aside.
