Trump And NAFTA...The Real Numbers
Nov 18, 2016 00:04:17 #
This is why President-elect Donald Trump talked so much about NAFTA in his debates, and this is why he plans to change it. Let's not forget that Bill Clinton signed it and Hillary wouldn't have changed a thing!
Looking at the raw data will also explain why Canada is OK with changing it and Mexico is not and China is fighting angry.
NAFTA is not just about engineering and manufacturing jobs. It causes layoffs and job losses in MANY sectors of our job market.
Go to this link http://www.citizen.org/taadatabase and search your city or state to see how many and what kinds of jobs were lost since NAFTA (1994). *
U.S.-Mexico trade since the adoption of the North American Free Trade Agreement has displaced 682,900 U.S. jobs, with California losing the most jobs (86,500 between 1994-2010) according to the Economic Policy Institute. Every single person that lost a job collected unemployment, couldn't pay taxes and couldn't put money back into their local community, impacting THEIR businesses.
Here's an example of just ONE company - Boeing, in just TWO states:
Layoffs
1994 - 2016
Boeing Co. - CA= 7,601
WA= 40,622
But hey DNC and Liberals, whip up the population of WA into a fearful r**t for equal rights...for women, gays, B****s and Mexicans...so they can what? Be equally poor as they sit in the unemployment line? If Trump h**es them so much and they have so much to fear, why is he trying to bring back these jobs for them (for ALL of us)?
*The numbers are higher than shown as these are only companies that applied for gov assistance for their employees to get training for different jobs.

Our current administration is so full of dung when it comes to our economy....They distract the t***h with issuing false new jobs....and avoid the reality that right now we have had the largest shut down and job loss in the history of the USA.
Trump has some good plans to bring us back on our feet. Unlike the current dip sticks in office.
