Use cheap labor, get a cheap product.

Via The Daily Caller:

    Media outlets ran an Associated Press story Friday that outlined just how terrible President-elect Donald Trump will be … for Mexican jobs.

    Mexican reporter Christopher Sherman wrote the story for The AP, and high-profile outlets like The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Miami Herald, the Chicago Tribune, and Business Insider all ran the story, alongside countless smaller news organizations nationwide.

    The piece shares stories of Mexicans upset with decisions by Ford and Carrier, which recently announced investments in U.S.-based plants in lieu of planned investments in Mexico. Ford announced it would cancel a $1.6 billion car plant investment in the northern part of Mexico.

    The proposed plant would have hired 2,800 Mexicans, and the resulting economic boost would have added 10,000 jobs to the region, according to the report.

    “They told us that it was a market issue — the issue that the Ford Focus that was the vehicle they thought to build, this light vehicle they planned to build in San Luis Potosi, they say the demand had dropped,” Economic Development Secretary Gustavo Puente Orozco told The AP about the cancellation.

    Puente told Sherman he learned about the cancellation only an hour before the company made the announcement Tuesday.

    “When I saw it on the phone, (I thought), ‘Well, no, it can’t be,’” a security guard at the proposed construction site told Sherman. “It was on orders of Mr. Trump.”

    Another business owner in the region reported the decision was completely unexpected. “It hit us like a bucket of cold water,” Rosales said. “Everyone here was hoping for a lot of growth in the state and this region, too.”

    Other Mexicans hoping to work at the factory voiced their opposition to Trump’s policies in the U.S., “This Trump, he doesn’t want people there, so where is he going to send them?” Construction worker J. Refugio Waldo Contreras asked. “And he doesn’t want work to open here? So then he’s going to close the doors.”

Asking US men and women who seen jobs flow to Mexico to be sympathetic when a few reverse "course" and come back"? That might not even sell that well in the enclaves of the coastal elites.

Mexico is a country rich in natural resources and - stereotypes notwithstanding - people willing to work their tails off. It should be a prosperous nation, but for its succession of corrupt and stupid governance (what government leaders really thought that their Screw the Yankees policy of letting drug and people smugglers have unhindered passage through the country wasn't going to end horribly?!).
If The Vaccine is deadly as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, millions now living would have died.

One of the largest and most cunning enemies of the average American US citizen is the US Chamber of Commerce, which is the largest proponent of illegal alien immigration labor in the country.

Followed by the Roman Catholic Church, and of course the United States Government.
