The Truth About NAFTA

The Truth About NAFTA And Its Disastrous Effects

Few are aware that NAFTA (North American Free Trade Agreement) has rendered us uncompetitive in the world, has destroyed our industrial base, caused us to outsource most of our production, and killed most of our manufacturing jobs.

For political reasons, Clinton, Obama, and McCain have not discussed this true picture.

Imagine if Congress enacted a special law only for the state of Michigan that:

* Dropped the minimum wage to $.50/Hour
* Exempted employers from child labor laws
* Expanded the work week
* Reduced health and work place safety laws
* Banned unions
* Allowed Michigan exporters full, duty-free access to Ohio and the rest of the states

Sounds crazy, huh?

This is what NAFTA did for Mexico, to the detriment of Ohio and all of America.
