Uncle Sammy They can also retool existing American factories...

GRoss Yup, Cheap labor is where it's at, cheap and they don't have to worry much about shipping as it's all a matter of transporting them with trucks, no need to depend on a boat.

HalfLife Yea I've been reading about how Mexico is getting plenty of investment from the auto industry. I think that it has surpassed Canada as the largest exporter of automobiles to the US.

GRoss Indeed, this greatly helps out their economy

yea that is likely the case

Yup, much cheaper, since thats millions and maybe even a billion worth of start up costs to get it going, the foundation and all the resources are already their.
