LA Times on peso

One of the biggest things I hate here is when I go to pay for something, they ask me if I'm paying in dollars or pesos. I actually tell them I'm Russian and never owned dollars in my life. If I see a restaurant menu in Dollars I leave. Most major Mexican companies, corporations, manufacturers, and banks hold their debt in USD. Paying the debts back will require more pesos. The consumer will get that bill. I know a few of my Mexican neighbors getting money sent from the U.S. and are noticeably happier lately.
