The nice feeling of not buy Chinese tools.

And it’s better because they use sugar, not corn syrup. Mexican Coke is always in demand here.

Or kool aid, in your case.

The US consumers have selected based on price and companies have responded.

They dont have a choice anymore. It was done for them.

Actually most of the illegals are from Guatemala and other Central America countries. Yes there are lots of Mexican farm laborers, but they are seasonal (and in high demand by US growers).

ok, I’ll tell Oscar, the mexican worker on the farm next to one of mine that has been here for 20 years (good dude BTW)
I’ll tell him a government guy on TBN said you are only “seasonal” workers. Their kids will be shocked to know that.

Stop being argumentative for the sake of being argumentative. Yes, there are plenty of Mexican people in the US, but the mass migrations have diminished because of all of the job opportunities they have in Mexico now. There are still a lot of seasonal laborers who come every year. When I was in Chihuahua City in 2019, I saw huge modern manufacturing campuses, and with new housing subdivisions around the facilities. Almost all of those being US companies with Southern Pacific railway sidings that transport to the rail port of entry in Santa Theresa, NM. Lots of middle class Mexican citizens now that have no desire to come to the US. Local farms still depend on seasonal laborers for crop work. US citizens who want to hand pick chiles, lettuce, grapes, melons, or bag onions cannot be found. Yes the US companies did send jobs to Mexico, and I don’t see that changing. What would change this situation? Huge investments have already been made by US corporations. Is this a loss to US people seeking manufacturing jobs? Hell yes, but talk to the younger generations; manufacturing jobs don’t appeal and most would prefer other career options. US society has changed. Do your children want manufacturing jobs?

What my children want is of no concern to you. But I do know that many Americans work in low paying retail, landscaping, house keeping, etc.
They‘d be better off in the manufacturing sector where they can learn a trade and possibly move to a higher paying job.
People that think the way you do have closed the door on those Americans, and NAFTA led the way. Not the Russians, not OMB
NAFTA

There is no more NAFTA. Didn’t the former administration negotiate a new treaty and call it perfect?

If you drink soda pop in bottles, chances are it was bottled in Mexico.

At least there is a chance the Blow, Fill, Seal machines were designed, engineered and built here in the USA by Great American companies like Weiler Engineering.

Building large equipment in the region of sales is pretty common. Look at all the Asian and some European car manufacturing plants in the US. And caterpillar equipment and many AG tractors are made in Asia for sale to those markets. Boeing and Airbus sell aircraft around the world. Why wouldn’t they also manufacture in other facilities around the world for sale to those regional markets?

Sure. My sister, when she worked for Donaldson, set up an assembly line in China for the Chinese market.

Around here a lot of people love not only Mexican coke but their weed, meth and fentanyl. Basically all their drugs‍

Weed now is legally available in many US states.
