How much does an auto factory worker make a week in Mexico? an hourly worker, turning screws or spray painting?

How much does an auto factory worker make a week in Mexico? an hourly worker, turning screws or spray painting?
I've been told they make $2 an hour. I don't' believe that, does anyone really know, how much does that Mexican worker take home in a week? Not the plant engineer or maintenance crew but the hourly worker.I know they make cars in Mexico, I saw them all lined up on the dock when on a cruise. Aren't we told the reason Business leaves the US is because our worker make too much money and the item can be made outside the US and shipped in, cheaper? How much per hour?

They say $3.50, But if you go to Mexico and look at the take home amount, after all is took out it is closer to .90 a hour.

Thanks to Tonalc2. we have a talking point to begin with. 3.00 an hour loaded would give you 6 with benefits if the same factors for loaded hour wage are the same used in this country. It really stands to reason if you were an auto maker you would be foolish not to take that factory to Mexico. Because the average loaded hourly rate in this country is 78.00 an hour. So this is really a no brainer, What we have to do as a Nation is find a way to balance out these inconsistencies, Either through tariff, or Dock fees, or somehow through another trade item we can strike an equitable balance, Me Im just a Homicide cop not an economist, So Im out of ideas. But you real smart guys out there in that field should be able to come up with a balance.

And yet the illegals are still coming into the U.S. looking for work. 3.50 an hr!! Attention out of work Americans!!! If you need a job go to Mexico. Let's just see if we can get free everything while we are their illegally. What a load of tihs.

The minimum wage in 2005 was $4.50 per day. I saw a link saying the typical wage for a factory worker was $1.85 a few years back. I suspect that it is a couple dollars and hour plus change today. The information you have been told is pretty accurate. It is sad to see how prediction about the race to the bottom the NAFTA critics predicted is coming true.

What are the best ways for "gringos" to make a living in mexico?

What are the best ways for "gringos" to make a living in mexico?
Without having a college degree or any technical experience other than random jobs. I've heard that teaching english is a good way to make money but it looks like most places require a college degree and experience as well as having a TEFL certificate. Can anyone shed some light on that?

When I was down there, I saw many Americans and Australians working in sales at the resorts and timeshares. Since most of their potential clients are Americans or English-speaking tourists, the resorts definitely need "gringos" to work there.

By paying himself a huge salary. The business itself isn't supposed to post a profit, but that doesn't mean the employees of the business can't earn a nice salary for themselves.
2 :
The difference between "for profit" and "non profit" is in basic terms what must be done with the profits. In "non profit", the profits are returned to the business. In "for profit" the profits can distributed to the shareholders via dividends. Think about hospitals, the vast majority of which are "non profit". Their employees certainly earn livings! And the reason hospitals go on building binges is the requirement for all of the excess to be put back into the hospitals -- or they can lose their status as "non profit". A CPA or attorney can help you get it all sorted out. By the way, just being "non profit" does NOT make contributions to the business deductible as charitable contributions -- to do that, you have to get a special designation from IRS.
