"If Mexico manufacturing is that good, why didn't Toyota et al locate their plants there instead of the US?"

Probably because the US government wouldn't give subsidies like they do for American companies.

All the Japanese companies were forced to locate plants here to avoid protectionist moves from our government.

If Mexico manufacturing is that good, why didn't Toyota et al locate their plants there instead of the US? Were the freebies given by the states like Alabama that good?
