Well what about NAFTA? Isn't that a Free Trade Zone? And yet the Mexicans are pouring in at an even faster rate then ever.

That's because neither party will build a wall on the border and enforce immigration laws. Unlike before NAFTA when we had zero illegals, right?

How many Mexicans would be pouring in if we hadn't signed NAFTA? You can't argue that it didn't create new jobs down there.

Exactly! The average Mexican isn't better off - their ongoing migration provides abundant testimony to that effect. Nor is the average American.

People forget that lower prices to consumers through free traitin' will surely result in lower incomes for producers. All producers, from the assembly line to the senior partner of an established law practice.

What are the Mexicans producing that they can trade with us? What money is going into Mexico besides the money that legal and illegal immigrants are sending home?
