Maybe not. If you raise wages in Mexico, the number who come to the US looking for jobs goes down. That may move the supply-vs-demand more in favor of labor in the US.

This is the reason the $16 wage floor exists.

I'd love to see those Trump voters who have to start working for a Mexican owned pool cleaning company because of that. That would maybe lead to proper inclusion of those people into a 21st century society.
