Read the book about how Jack Welch changed corporate America. NAFTA definitely plays a role, but it also gave stability to Mexico, reducing illegal Mexican immigration (most current illegals are from Central America). I would rather do business with our neighbors than China.

Actually most of the illegals are from Guatemala and other Central America countries. Yes there are lots of Mexican farm laborers, but they are seasonal (and in high demand by US growers).
