@bloodwargaming3662 - “why no industries like Mexico?”
An aggregate of factors.
[BLOOD] - “not about taxes”
Incorrect. Taxes are an important factor.
Taxes buy some things:
- security for industry
- security for workers
- security for customers
- infrastructure for industry (power, heat, water, transportation)
- infrastructure to educate workers
- infrastructure to allow worker movement
When taxes are not successfully buying those things, the business must spend a portion of it’s profit providing those things, which is in effect an indirect tax on their existence in that nation or location .
Mexico has locality advantages to Columbia: close to the US market, where goods can quickly & easily move to market via road, rail, plane, and water.
A country needs a people who willingly pay taxes, to support infrastructure for their children & their own jobs (businesses.)
A people who desire others to pay taxes & provide them services is an immoral people.
Ethical businesses can not survive with immoral workforce or surrounded by immoral community or government.
Ethical governments can not survive with immoral citizenry, surrounded by immoral businesses.
Government is not someone else, it is us.
Business is not someone else, it is us.
