The conflicting objectives of Japan and Mexico, Canada, UAW and the U.S., relating to auto parts and components during negotiations for the TPP
09/04/2015
Japan uses China and Thailand as part of its supply chain. Mexico has made gains under NAFTA it does not want to lose with large imports of cheap Chinese auto parts. The U.S. auto industry is somewhere in the middle and the UAW trade union wants to preserve American jobs. The different interests of Canada, Mexico, Japan and the U.S. make it harger to negotiate aspects of the ATT related to the auto industry. The auto industry in the U.S. is not a significant beneficiary from passing of the TPP.

Workers in U.S. manufacturing plants in 2015- global competition, U.S. competitiveness and downward pressure on wages
03/24/2015
Workers who were once in the middle class are now lower class as conditions have changed in the automobile and other U.S. manufacturing plants. As more jobs are created in manufacturing than in IT related industries, this is a significant factor in improving U.S. employment and wages. There is an 86% increase in imports of parts from Mexico since 2008, over double for China.

How Mexico's 40 free trade agreements reaching 60% of world markets helps Mexico win auto manufacturing foreign investment in 2015
03/18/2015
VW Audi decided to use Mexico instead of the U.S. state of Tennessee for a $1.3 billion manufacturing plant investment in 2015, not just because of low manufacturing cost, but also because it can export more easily from Mexico. The U.S. has fewer free trade agreements than Mexico.

The other roots of increasing inequality in the U.S.- global competition and sourcing, the case of the U.S. auto industry and manufacturing workers
03/24/2015
Auto parts imports into the U.S. from Mexico have increased by 86% since 2008, more than doubled for China. As wages rise in China, India is the next source country for low cost automobile parts from auto industry hubs in Gujarat and Tamilnadu, placing continuous downward pressure on manufacturing wages for the next decade, and the next. Parts imports were $32 billion in 1990, $138 billion in 2014. Workers in manufacturing make as low as $10 an hour today, similar to workers at Wal-Mart. An entire generation of manufacturing workers are now shifted from middle class to lower class from their parents generation to their own, reducing educational mobility in the American system and fewer opportunities for improvement. As more jobs are created in manufacturing than in IT related industries this is a significant hurdle for improving wages and employment in the U.S.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
