factory workers in Mexico make something like 200 pesos/day .... Roughly $10 USD. Let that sink in. We have people demanding to raise the minimum wage to $15/hour. The only way the US can compete is with automation .

Oh friggin bull shite!

1- years to negotiate? Has it been years since Trump took office? No. In fact an he hasn't even been sworn in and the PM of Canada and the president of Mexico has public stated they are ready to renegotiate NAFTA.


2- let's go ahead and talk about 10$ per hour. What is the tax rate those businesses are paying there? That's but one offset.

Manufacturers would gladly pay a higher wage and be in the US when the taxes offset that.
