  1. I think this is an interesting quirk that isn't well touched on. American manufacturing half died because it was too expensive to come in anywhere but the back of the line when the low cost was centralized in China. If it's centralized across a land border it'll make a lot more sense overall to have it in a variety of steps than simply the final step.

  2. I think overall it's probably fine anyway in the long run given how important Spanish is becoming to the USA anyway so by the time that investment is even completed you may have the US just naturally having Spanish speaking theme parks. They already make announcements in Spanish after an English one so overall I think it services it well enough.

  3. It's not just nostalgic boomers but the fact that the manufacturing sector provided basically all of the middle tier jobs. But some manufacturing is coming back to the USA anyway and I think American-Mexican manufacturing is likely to grow in a complementary manner much like Germany and Poland which the US-Mex relationship has already had to a large degree.
