    I’m sorry you’ve never been poor and never have known a blue collar worker. Hopefully you get out your privileged little tower soon and meet people. They’ll be more than happy to tell you why NAFTA encouraging off shoring of a lot of good paying jobs ruined their parents’ and their neighbors’ lives.

    It was quite literally the most economically devastating bit of legislation in the 90s and 00s

      Swing and a miss! I’ll give you a little hint, it’s not nafta to blame. It’s Reagan but nice try!

        Reagan signed NAFTA into law allowing companies to get tax breaks for offshoring?

        Weird. Usually you people deny neoliberalism as a concept since it reveals there’s no difference in the economic goals of either major party given they’re the same ideology.
