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.

I’m baffled myself. I have no idea what you are talking about.
