Its rich Natural Resources and relatively weak defensive capabilities. This is the reason several powers have tried to take control of Mexico during the 19th and 20th centuries -- specifically, the United States, France and Spain.

Of course; many American companies take advantage of cheaper production and labor costs in less developed countries such as Mexico or China and manufacture their products in such countries. This is called "offshoring" and unfortunately, is the reason many industries have closed their operations in the US and migrated whole industries into other countries.
