Japan auto companies Triple Mexican pay rather than move to US | |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 77271083  United States07/05/2020 06:39 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The new North American free trade agreement that goes into effect Wednesday was touted by U.S. President Donald Trump as an engine of American job creation. But Japan's automakers are largely opting instead to keep operations in place and pay Mexican workers more or even just pay tariffs. The US-Mexico-Canada Agreement requires 40% or more of parts for each passenger vehicle be manufactured by workers who are paid at least $16 per hour as a condition to make them tariff free in the region. Trump hailed that feature as a way to boost production in the U.S., which has a higher hourly rate than Mexico.

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 72595535 Oh, it doesn't. Just your perverted mind twisting reality into make believe. Did you click it and read it? "One reason is the cost of moving production. Honda Motor-affiliated parts maker Keihin will raise the hourly wage of employees at a factory in Mexico to $16 by next month -- triple the average rate of a parts factory in Mexico, but still cheaper than making a move. ... Auto component maker Piolax, will also raise the hourly wage at its Mexican plant to $16 within the year. The company is also installing robots to mitigate rising labor costs, President Yukihiko Shimazu said." |

You have the first weapon of mass destruction and you maim your enemy by taking out two small cities? Never even considered the Capital. Lots of fuckery was going on there with us and the Japs.

Democraps will try undo anything Trump had a had a hand in. Interesting that the Trump redo of NAFTA ends up making wages better for Mexicans. That's a good thing. It's not their fault that traitors in the US (both teams) sold out American manufacturing. In his poem Human Pride, Marx admits that his aim is not to improve the world, reform or revolutionize it, but simply to ruin it and enjoy it being ruined: With disdain I will throw my gauntlet full in the face of the world, And see the collapse of this pygmy giant whose fall will not stifle my ardor. Then will I wander godlike and victorious through the ruins of the world And, giving my words an active force, I will feel equal to the Creator. “Looking for consciousness in the brain is like looking in the radio for the announcer.” – Nasseim Haramein, Director of Research for the Resonance Project |

In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act. It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not. The object of life is not to be on the side of the majority, but to escape finding oneself in the ranks of the insane. |
