    The Trump administration is seeking to complete its Nafta overhaul with new rules penalizing the Mexican auto industry unless it boosts wages—to roughly $16 an hourhttps://on.wsj.com/2KFgOJc

        Pretty sure when comparing apples to apples our auto workers besting $16 per hr, and additionally this would be a beginning of building up a Mexican middle class, boosting purchasing power & giving their economy a jump start. Something our Progressives ought applaud.

        If Mexico can double its wages on command then Anada and the US should agree to do the same. And since the cost of living in Mexico is less than half the US, why can’t we have a $40/hour minimum wage? Yay

        it's impossible for auto makers to pay those wages in Mexico, they would disrupt the job market all together....

        Higher wages, higher gas prices! How about Trump be concerned raising the minimum wage in this country to $15 an hour!

        Raising wages in our country will only force our manufacturers to play even more global labor arbitrage games and lay off American workers. Trump’s solution now is to force our companies to pay more in other countries, with the intention to slow or even reverse this game.

        Cant wait to see what consumers think of their 200000 dollar pickups. Not that im apposed to the Mexican people being paid fairly but everyone should realize how this will change prices
