I would prefer to stay in the Yucatan rather than Juarez or Tamalipas any day.
Fine Lemmy. But why do you think the Mexicans living in those regions think differently and are flooding into the maquiladora regions? If the reason is that they are being deceived as to the nature of the work, the pay, and the living conditions, then I agree that more should be done to educate them about the true conditions in those regions and to punish those spreading the misinformation.
But if the reason is that they think the higher pay is worth the change in living conditions, then I'm not sure who you are to take that choice away from them by closing those factories (which I assume you're calling for although perhaps I'm wrong).
