Remember, what really matters for employers is not absolute wages, but unit labor costs — how much the labor costs to manufacture a given product. If a U.S. worker is 5 times as productive as a Mexican worker making one-fifth as much, they are exactly equal from the point of view of a producer.

Great, so you only have to work 5 times harder than everyone else to have a chance. Sounds fair to me </sarcasm>

Ever heard of leveraging technology? Work two times smarter and your easily five times more productive.
