So we need to pay higher prices, because Mexicans earn less?

No, we need to have a bit of loyalty to our own workers. You can't expect any American trucking company to compete with $50 to $65 per day Mexican trucking wages. Even your precious NAFTA agreement prohibited using Mexican truckers to move goods from US point to US point. Do you disagree with that provision of NAFTA? Explain why or why not.

And that isn't happening, is it?

I don't have a problem with Mexican drivers taking Mexican trucks all the way to their destination. Stopping in Texas and transferring their load to an American truck is silly and inefficient.
