NAFTA is no where near as much a problem as the higher taxation and uncertainty being fostered by this administration. Between the HealthCare taxes coming up, the CapNTax penalties in discussion, the increase in taxes after the Bush tax cuts expire, and the very likely huge bump in inflation which will arrive sometime in the next few years, NO business is going to expand. Any business that can leave the US is going to leave when they are able. Those who are in Democrat states like IA are more likely to leave than those in GOP states.

I'm for cutting corporate taxes. However, even if that were done, we can't compete with slave wages and no pollution controls.

We're at a real crossroads here. If cheap stuff is all we'll buy, cheap stuff is all most of us will be able to afford. And I doubt any of you will like the political result of a disappearing middle class. You're getting a taste of it right now.
