Doug was correct in saying that wages paid by US companies tend to be higher than local wage rates. That has been true for decades, but I have been reading lately that things may be changing as the subcontractors are getting squeezed. For example, Chinese workers, I am reading, are now becoming very dissastisfied with the wages being offered.
