naftafailure

In 1993, the year NAFTA was ratified, America had a $1 billion annual trade surplus with Mexico. By 1995, America had a $16 billion annual trade deficit with Mexico. Today, America's annual trade deficit with Mexico is $74 billion. I believe this makes President Clinton, Vice President Gore, and all the newspaper editors who wrote editorials supporting NAFTA look like complete idiots or worse. Ross Perot was absolutely right even though he was not effective in the debate. 

Also, this video is significant because it documents how NAFTA was sold to America by its elected leaders.
