Yes, thanks NAFTA.
My car is cheaper because it was made for Mexican wages.
I win, auto workers lose.
They say so sad, I say too bad.

As corrupt as US unions are, I can’t begin to imagine how bad it is in Mexico. The worker’s rights and working conditions are not near the top of the list.

The cartels are using GM parts to smuggle drugs into the US

No, because I'm not a dumbass. American unions did this to themselves. That's what happens when you pay someone pushing a broom $30 an hour. People build plants where labor is cheaper.

And if they could, they would still replace them with robots.

Pay attention to what you see on the streets of Cabo and Cancun on your way from the airport to your next "exotic" vacation. The employees would prefer working in that plant to collecting bottles, so they take those jobs. Or they can choose not to. Their choice.
