Do you think it is fair that Mexico has the factories there and their workers are used and paid at the rate of their economical system. And then they came here and took all the American Jobs as well?
Is there something wrong with that picture? I am not blaming anyone I just want to see the logic? hmmmmm?

It did not start with Clinton, it was Carter that tinkered around with it when he was too busy with the Iran hostages? And then Reagan instituted it and aggressively with the Japanese to move there after Carter cut the Japanese off! So they went to Mexico city and Reagan gave amnesty to all the illegals here as well! Then Bush kept it up strongly, and then Clinton. And as far as the jobs I would do that they have filled the quotas with in every major corporation, and factory here with Hispanics? Yes how about the all the telephone,electric, gas, companies to start with? Okay with you? Or the Hotel industry ? Management positions galore?
Airlines? UPS? Fed-ex? Post Offices? Government positions? and immigration departments, Employment Security offices all over America? And the Social Security Offices? And the Major City positions are flooded, secretaries, to Counselman and Alderman, and Union Labor as well! The quotas have been outrageously increased! You have been lied to!

Rock and a hard place. How would CEOs draw $300 million/year salaries if they had to pay workers and honest wage?

You can blame that situation on US labor unions. Nobody was interested in outsourcing when people were paid at least relatively close to what their labor would have fetched in a truly open labor market. Now that UAW workers are compensated (pay and benefits combined) at $73.73/hr, how can major corporations afford NOT to send jobs across the Rio Grande?
I don't want to see NAFTA obliterated at all...I want to see it expanded to the FTAA!

I for one would like to see it gone. It started in the Clinton era and I think Bush added to it. It's a crazy idea but I do know that a lot of the factories that have gone to Mexico end up comming back but have a hard recovery.

Tell you what. Why don't you start out by telling me what job a Mexican immigrant is doing here that you want to do instead. Be specific. Then let's talk about it.
And as far as ending NAFTA, exactly how is that supposed to cut down on immigration pressures from Mexico?
