High paying US jobs becoming very low paying Mexican jobs. UPS and other corporations suing governments over barriers to trade such as environmental and labor laws. Wealth distribution becoming even more unequal. People working longer hours making less money. Families needing two or more jobs just to survive. Children realizing that they may very likely live at a lower standard then their parents.
This is the reality in which we live. If this is what NAFTA style competition does, then I don't want it. What we need to do is democratize the economic system, and the nost feasible way to do that, at least that I can see, is through the UN.
This will help to set a world standard for trade, not just national, continental, or hemispheric.
