Goods from China, their prices kept artificially low by China's monetary policy, have been costing jobs in Mexico for more than a decade. Despite huffing and puffing from Mexican farmers about how much damage removing tariffs from U. S. agricultural goods is doing to them, agricultural imports from China, particularly beans, are actually hurting them significantly more. They're just not complaining about it.
