The average wage in Mexico is about 51 an hour. The average Mexican work week is 48 hours. Of course they have nothing comparable to OSHA or EPA or Social Security or workers compensation. If we are worried about illegal immigration now. if an FTA is negotiated. we will witness a reverse migration as Americanbased multinational corporations stream across the border to take advantage of low wages and this absence of regulation south of the border. Lets be done with the myth that these are patriotic American companies. Their allegiance is not to the red. white and blue. its to the green. the almighty dollar.
