“Yes, I understand. I would be a great day when tens of thousands of truckers in the U.S. lost their jobs. I get it.”
And a sad tragic irony here is the Truckers will be hauling some products produced in Mexico, some of which once helped employ United States workers to produce. Not that continued US manufacturing production capacity has anything to do with what’s best for the US. (sarc)
Look you seem to think you’re some kind of economics trade wizzard or something. That’s okay. What baffles me is why you think business concerns are going to pay truckers $18 to $24 dollars an hour to go into Mexico to pick up goods and deliver them back into the U.S., when they could pay a Mexican driver to do it for $5 to $10 an hour.
Wasn’t the idea here to cut costs to the bone for the benefit of all mankind? Please explain why you think folks are going to opt to pay higher wages.
I mean if this makes sense, there’s no need to have Mexican drivers do anything.
