You have to look at issues here with cost compared to there.
From what I know Carrier employees get 30 a hour. They were going to pay Mexicos workers 11 dollars a hour. It’s not the only issue but one of the biggest is pushing for higher wages especially by unions. Then the other issues here. With Nafta there is no duty exporting things here and vise versa.
Well have to be careful with nafta because Agriculture is also exported there duty free. Also services. In the end we’re still losing because of the outsourcing including other things like the cost to park shipping to China, Japan etc for goods is uneven as far as I know. We need to be more competitive ” amongst ourselves” with everyday prices that are ready to reach in your pockets Everytime cost of living wages go up. At the same time people need fair pay vs skill needed, but not get carried away and scare their jobs away. Not saying that’s what Carriers workers did but one of the main motivators other than personal greed or Wall Street pressure to keep those earning rising even if it means laying people off. What the heck is wrong with consistent earnings? Thanks to them we have to pay 700 for a cell phone. Gotta stop..
