Free trade in Asia, good idea?

#47

Quote:American companies can build a factory there, and get raw materials from the US...tax free.


A pickup truck manufactured in Dearborn Mi. Costs the same as one manufactured in Mexico.... Except the $8 an hour Mexican worker won't be buying it. Who benefits here?

 
 

I was asking Eric for specifics. What American companies have built factories in Mexico? If so are they still operating there or have they since moved production to China et al.? Which pickup trucks are built in Mexico?


 

I was opposed to NAFTA at the time. I remember some companies moving production to Mexico. Zenith did, but now Zenith is out of business. I remember reading how Lionel trains move production back to the US after quality problems in Mexico. So now I wonder if it actually made any difference in the long run. Mexicans are still flooding into the US for jobs, so the job situation down there can't be very good.
