A questioner stated that her husbands plant closed, was moved to Juarez Chihuahua, Mexico, a family member told her that the workers at the new plant, made
$30 per day plus had benefits of clothes, shoes, medical and child care services.
That any family member could go into the plant to work that job.
No sources other than what the family member told her!!
As of 01-01-2006
The minimum wage in Mexico was $4.56 / day
In Juarez "Maguiladora's" wages were $1.25 per hour, $10.00 per day, $50.00 per week
(40 hr week) no O.T. !
American Plants (Maguiladora's)
the employees buy their own work uniforms, no free child care , free shoes.
That is what the minimum wage is in Mexico, Mexican Unions are pressing the plants to increase wages and benefits. American plants are threatening to pull out their plants and move to China because of the increased demands for Mexican Wages.
You still think they are going to raise wages so Americans will do the work. do not hold your breath

China is a cesspool of pollution ,many of its food products have been banned in the Asian markets, because of the unsanitary conditions under which they are produced. The communist are waging a battle on the corruption in China. China was being observed by Asia as its becoming a superpower in the market place of the future, Its cheap labor is it best selling point for now, by under cutting the labor cost in the rest of Asia.

I don't know, but I investigated a person who posted on here about "illegals" killing Americans...and guess what I found? I found out that most of those people on the "list." Were not killed by illegal aliens but by people who are residents or citizens with Hispanic names. Out of the one's I investigated 1 was apparently killed by an illegal, even then it still wasn't certain (because the article I found say's he might be an illegal, no positive confirmation). Than this person goes on to say that the "California DOJ" in a "confidential" memo stated that illegals are a major cause of crime..and guess what? I CAN'T find the study...weird huh? I'll tell you the truth, I'm an anti. I don't like illegal immigration because it brings problems like identity theft (my mother has been a victim of people using her social for work) and other crimes (like hit and runs because they don't have insurance, like not knowing who is coming in whether they are criminals in their home country, etc) but I won't resort to lying about it. That doesn't help my beliefs and my credibility. So when someone posts up something from newsmax or youtube, I throw it aside..it's just not credible..they do not cite sources, etc..it's just propaganda. The problem is that the politicians (like Clinton who signed the trade agreement that China is HAVING problems keeping with..) here are selling out America to China and other cheap labor countries for their benefit. That's who they should really take their anger out on. I believe in a "free market" but only when it doesn't hurt our citizens.

I don't think many people realize how many of our major companies have already moved out of the country.If the ones left have to pay a higher wage they too will leave.And if we deport all illegals who are they going to blame in 10 years when our unemployment rate is greater than it's ever been?At least now we have jobs.I'll always have a job so it doesn't affect me.But it will my kids.

Yeah, China is a cesspool, and Mexico is the mecca of all high technology of sanitation. How many people didn't get diarrhea when they spend their spring break there??
by the way, what asian race get awarded the Westinghouse Science scholarship or the president's science award most often? I don't remember many Mexican names being announced in the past 30 years.

The right wage must be given even when the company transfers to any other place.

China is not ruining US economy and destryoning the middle-class. Stop trying to throw suspicion off the real enemy here, which is Mexico.

I have seen plenty from both sides of the immigration fence provide no documentation whatsoever to outlandish claims.
To assign such behavior to the "antis" alone is inaccurate and as blindly one-sided as you accuse the antis of being.

You point out one false statement and generalize all statements are untruthful. Thats false logic. I catch pro's making false statements. Some are mistakes, some are worse.
As for why corporation is moving to CHina, its not the wages. China's factory are more efiicient. They have good layout for certain industries. The support system is set up near the factories. AS for illegals coming over here, the top three jobs they do is Construction, Farm, and Janitorial. These jobs CAN NOT be exported to China.

EVERYONE, go to google search, type in "Immigration gumballs", turn up your speakers and pay attention.
This will even change the minds of the libs that think so much of our children.

Why do pros never make any sense? If they only knew how they are being used as pawns in a much bigger and more dangerous game, they would not be so eager to see our laws trampled on.
