In the 1990s, billionaire Texas businessman Ross Perot ran twice for president with one of his main campaign points being that free trade would destroy America, especially through the North American Free Trade Agreement. Fast forward to the present day where Perot Systems announced last week that they would open a technology center south of the border in Guadalajara. “Mexico is a very important strategic location for us,” said a spokesman for Perot Systems who also admitted that the company’s expansion to Mexico was influenced by lower pay for engineers.
