k, here we go.
by the way yr linky, no worky. we'll start with the basics since yr foundation of understanding is so minute..
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NAFTA
"The North American Free Trade Agreement, known usually as NAFTA, is a free trade agreement among Canada, the United States, and Mexico. NAFTA went into effect on January 1, 1994. NAFTA is also used to refer to the tripartite trading bloc of North American countries".
NAFTA was relatively small scale and scope as u can tell. 3 countries. It has very little to do with explosion of what we term, outsourcing, today. Since the W Bush tenure, we have had large technological companies outsourcing to countries all over the world, namely to India. This involved many different nations that NAFTA had nothing to with. The explosion of outsourcing, world wide, is happening now!
By name alone,it should tell u it had do with free trade, and tarrifs,and a trade bloc, with set goals to help trade... not outsource, b/c they hadn't even identified it in the way that we see it today. NAFTA merely fed the eventual idea for mad outsourcing. Bush continues to praise it, and it is rolling along, taking jobs away from hard working americans. Like u, he may not understand it.
..and this is a load of shit right here:
" Why is it a hot issue right now? Simple: the economy is not doing great, no job growth. When you have no job growth, the obvious finger to point is "outsourcing". BTW, they are not pointing fingers at the president because of "outsourcing"...they want the president to "stop" the amount of outsourcing that has existed BEFORE he came into office".
Read my paragraph again. we're outsourcing huge technological companies like IBM and HP,manufacturing to China, and port security nowadays. where ya been"? That would never have been done during Clinton.That's all GW,baby.
more shit:
"Did you ever hear about the gas crisis in the 70s? Of course not, because you don't know about it. That's why HONDA'S began to get popular during the 70s, because not only did it pass EPA standards, but it got better gas milage than any American car in that market".
and the truth:
haha u said yrself previously that in the late 70's it STARTED. but that is not defined as the boom. the Japanese car BOOM would in be the 80's, and that's a fact. It had the whole decade to boom. Check car sales decade vs. decade. or ask a mechanic for god's sakes.jeez..
more crap:
"Wrong. Infact, Outsourcing has been declining in growth every year since Bush has been in office. REMEMBER: poor economic policies and shitty president = shitty economy = shitty business = less overseas business = less "outsourcing" growth.
Here's more proof to shut you up:

the truth:
we haven't even hit the peak of outsourcing yet. Your chart ends in 2003! It's 2006. The numbers over the last couple years will blow that away.The important thing is this: the right has accomplished in just five years the creation of a low-wage economy, a country filled with high-skilled workers so desperate for jobs they will work for peanuts. Bush and his econmic advisors continue to openly support these policies. But you're still talking about NAFTA. That's "old news".haha. Bush sees the results of outsourcing, and is dumb enough to push CAFTA.
well, i think you've had enough here..u must have known i'd come back around on ya. but, this is getting boring to be honest.
