Still $1.6B investment in Mexico that could be used to create jobs here. Given about 94 million unemployed/ under employed citizens here. Unless the margins are too low to have a profit margin, keep the manufacturing here.

Managers who can only find more profit in lowering wages are inept at best. Basic economic strategy like EOQ, efficiency, automation, tool preventive maintenance, quality control, and better fuel mileage would enhance brand loyalty, increase sales and help our economy by keeping earned income at home. To be worth one's salt, one must be efficient and worthy.

I agree that image is going to suffer if they move to Mexico, but like all businesses, it's about the bottom line. Cheap labor is sometimes more important than American interests.

I don't believe I was disregarding any details. By post was strictly commenting on how this move was good for America. Please do not assume I am making any connection with Ford's decision and the President-Elect.
