Totally disagree. For a good stretch of NAFTA there was virtually no unemployment*. Employment issues today have nothing to do with NAFTA, IMO. Fighting free trade (not saying that you are) in the name of jobs is like fighting technology in the name of jobs.
*Unemployment steadily dropped from 1994-2001, indicating that free trade may be correlated and possibly causal in creating jobs.
makes no sense at all. nafta took some time to be implemented and more to impact the economy. It's absurd to presume that free access to a cheap pile of labor has no impact on our jobs market.
