A Case for Repealing NAFTA and Blocking the NAU (Part 1 of 4)

[NeverGrowBack]

Good watch in case someone has somehow missed the North American Union, in which case you might want to catch up a bit.

lol @ making the reference to communism. If i recall correctly, both communism and fascism were opposed to free trade. NAFTA isn't free trade and that's why it should be repealed, regardless of the fact that "free trade" is in its title. What we need is real free trade. No tariffs or quotas.

Do a search on "how they voted Cafta" and another search, "how they voted Nafta'. What you'll find is that in both chambers of congress both bills passed with overwhelming Republican support and overwhelming Democratic opposition (with the exception of the Senate on Nafta; though even here it was majority opposition from the Dems). The Dems have the numbers to repeal both agreements now...but...do they have the guts? It's time for the Dems to repeal Cafta and Nafta NOW!!

All the illegals work for ten dollars an hour in a job that generally pays us 25.00 hrly. Now those of us who had an income to sustain our families are losing our livelihood. Destroying an economy has never been a strengthening device for our economy. It makes us all poor.That is, except for the politicians living off our taxes at all levels.ahahahaahahaha Politicians win, we lose!

And don't forget the US CEO making millions per year while outsourcing all these jobs. Insanity.

[G0dspelronin]

You got that right!

Paying lower nominal wages is not "destroying" the economy. Nominal wages don't matter. What matters is purchasing power - what the wages buy. Trade doesn't make people poor. It does the opposite. SOME people lose jobs and have OTHER jobs to get. The result is more total stuff produced which means more stuff available to consume and thus a higher living standard and growing economy. Taxes on the other hand, are simply theft.

I have nothing to criticize with your excellent point.

Amnesty for as much as 30 million?

We lost 9 million jobs in recent times.

Is allowing their stay helping Americans that are fast becoming dependant on the government for survival?

The mexicans don't cross the border, the border crossed mexicans years ago, I don't understand why are you trying to get rid of mexicans, mexicans are our neighbors, this issue is very complex, but i think it's a little too late 4 separete our countries and continue by ourselves, it's not gonna happen.
