Some highlights, 300 miles of range, quality on par with American car makers, 10% of Mexico's car marketshare in just a few years

According to Mexican Immigration law, a foreign national must have a valid Mexico work visa to work legally in the country in exchange for remuneration. The visa is issued after a process of verification and inspection by the Immigration agents.

Stop acting like you solved the border crisis with this hair-brained idea.
Those plants couldn't support 10,000+ people each day and the vast majority don't have worker visas for Mexico. The majority of illegals are from the middle east, central America, China... give me a break.

People who have good jobs in Mexico won't need to come to the US.

Solves the crisis at the border.

They can work in Chinese auto plants in Mexico.

As for the 10,000 people crossing the border, what kind of jobs are they going to do here?

Is picking tomatoes better than working in an auto plant?

  1. 10,000+ illegals from several countries enter the United States each day. Do you think they are interested in working in auto plants? Do you think there are enough jobs at auto plants to support this?
  2. You assume non-Mexican residents can work in American auto plants (in Mexico).

The more good automotive jobs in Mexico the less reason people have to cross the border and come here.

Even people from countries south of Mexico like Venezuela can get good car jobs in Mexico and not come farther north.

"Or a CEO making 29 million a year."
Here's some simple math for you. If Mary gave her salary to the UAW, earning nothing, what would that $29 million get you?

$29,000,000 / 46,000 GM UAW members = $630.00

With the brain-trust of the UAW making this idea the main feature, the solution to the strike is a check for $630 for each one of you. Then you will "eat the rich" and get back to playing cards and sleeping in parts bins.

Please down-vote this to confirm that you can understand simple math and that you understand how d-mb your CEO pay argument is.

So nice of us to hand off our technology so it could be reverse engineered and sold to the rest of the World .

The Chinese CEOs probably make 100k.

Can the big 3 meet UAW demands of a 40% raise and a pension and still compete with cheap cars from China?
