The correct answer is - the labor force is cheaper.

The living standard in Mexico is much lower than the one in the United States. In accordance to it, the wages are much lower as well, so the labor force is very cheap when compared with the labor force of the United States.

In order to increase their profit, lots of companies have moved and made facilities in Mexico, so for the same work, they are paying the workers much less, and all owners would prefer that the same job is done for lesser amount of money.

What happens to the birth rate of a country when the economy develops? Why?
Mariana [72]
When a country has economic development, the birth rate usually falls. People are working more and wait later in life to have children. While some others now choose to not have any children at all. For a population to be stable, a woman needs to have 2 children, it has fallen over the years in developed countries. This can be problematic for future generations because the newer generations are the ones to support the retiring generations. Labor forces will shrink and this will then hurt the economy.
