it's more likely that they'll instigate another regime change in mexico should any administration ever suggest moving away from the dollar.

Regime change schemes only work when they're able to destabilize the economy first. That's precisely what BRICS prevents from happening.

that's how it works with normal regime changes; but the americans were able to push the pri out despite a relatively decent economy and they have the ability to do it again with something like the cartels.

We'll see how it goes, but I don't think the US today has the power to accomplish such feats.

It takes an almost a trivial effort for the Americans to destabilize Mexico. All they need to do is train another zetas like group again with the schools that already exist and training that they've perfected over the decades and you have another generation of guaranteed violence and social upheaval that will leave the populace willing to accept peace at the barrel of an American gun; again

Again, track record hasn't been so good for US destabilizing nations in the past decade. I think you're vastly overestimating the capabilities the empire has at the present moment. In any case, we will see. I don't see any point arguing further about this. Either it will happen or not. I don't think it's in the cards.
