NAFTA Pro’s and Cons PRO Jobs and factories have been shipped to Mexico, but supplier is not shipped. In other words, US manufacturers continue to purchase from their suppliers in US. Unlike jobs and factories exported to China, US suppliers connections are not cut.

Factories are relocated, and jobs are cut. NAFTA Pro’s and Cons CON Factories are relocated, and jobs are cut.

NAFTA Pro’s and Cons PRO Mexicans benefit from this treaty, since more jobs are created for low income people, and help build the Mexican economy.

NAFTA Pro’s and Cons CON The opposite effect is that Americans are losing their jobs, increase US trade deficit.

NAFTA Pro’s and Cons PRO NAFTA brought in a flood of foreign investment and contributed to a 24% rise in Mexico's per capita income.

NAFTA Pro’s and Cons CON The pact has destroyed Mexico's small farmers, and brought in an influx of subsidized U.S. food imports

NAFTA Pro’s and Cons PRO Its mission is to increase number of Mexican jobs, increase standard of living, and thereby decrease the illegal Mexican immigrants entering US

NAFTA Pro’s and Cons CON Data has shown NAFTA to be ineffective in stemming the tide of illegal Mexican immigrants entering the US to find jobs.

US companies near the border are gaining positive results from NAFTA NAFTA Pro’s and Cons PRO US companies near the border are gaining positive results from NAFTA

NAFTA Pro’s and Cons CON US companies away from the border are gaining negative results from NAFTA, notably jobs

It deserves the strong support of all those who believe in liberty and free markets.
