As the reader may have guessed, these are real countries: Mexico and Vietnam. Mexico shares a 2,000-mile long border with the United States, which provides not only privileged market access in goods and labor, but also a claim to the resources of the US Treasury (as became apparent during the 1995 peso crisis).
读者也许已经猜到，上述例子都涉及到真实的国家：墨西哥和越南。墨西哥与美国有着2，000英里长的共同边界，这不仅为该国提供了商品和劳务市场的特别准入，还可以得到美国财政部的资金援助（这一点在1995年比索危机中得到了充分体现）。
