Give it 50-100 years like we've had, and the Mexicans will be just as Americanized as we have become. Fact of life. Also, a lot of what people think of as "Italian" culture is more like "Italian American" culture.
There ya go. If it was ever true Italian culture, Italian-Americans would be living with their mother/family until they marry, they'd be in church every week, they'd never work on a sunday, they'd be taking off the entire month of August for vacation, the men would have been walking around with euro-bags (purse) forever now, families choosing to hang out with each other (cousins, etc) rather than friends, and thousands of other things I can't think of off hand. It's the death of Italian-American culture. In fact, I hear left and right Italian-Americans making fun of Italians in Italy. For their style of dress, men wearing speedos, carrying purses, wearing lavender and pink with jeans and white belt.
This culture was never here to begin with, so it never died.
