| Quote: | Corsi contends a main purpose of opening Lazaro Cardenas to receive a greater volume of containers from the Far East and linking it with the planned NAFTA Super-Corridor and Kansas City SmartPort is to reduce labor costs.
Longshoremen would not be employed at the port of Lazaro Cardenas, and, in Mexico, the employees of Kansas City Southern would not be United Transportation Union workers.
To the extent that Mexican trucks become involved in the operation, it would mean Teamster Union drivers would not be employed in the operation.

If you have a good paying job with benefits, beware. They are currently sitting around figuring out how to outsource it or get some cheap migrant labor to do it.
We need to do something about this now before it gets any worse. We need a moratorium on outsourcing. The argument that outsourcing creates high tech and high paying jobs here in America is just stupid. We need to vote in politicians that will have the interest of the American people at heart, not the big corporations bottom line.
This little cartoon pretty much sums it up. They make you watch a commercial first, but its worth the wait Big Box Mart
