GirlfromUncle asked:

I just don’t get it. Everyone complains about immigration but the US does nothing to help improve living conditions in Mexico so that their citizens don’t have to come here to find safety and work. Most immigrants would happily stay at home with their families if they could make a decent living there. Why hasn’t the US done anything to help them! Maybe they realize that our economy would collapse without the workers who are here getting paid slave wages? All this money is being poured in the Middle East but nothing is being done to help our neighbors. Is it because there is no oil in Mexico?

Callnoc asked:

If we have travel time and travel cost, under what conditions can they be considered as substitues? Under what conditions can they be considered as complements?
Could you please give example in transportation system?
Thanks.
