So you approve when the NAFTA trade agreement destroyed small Mexican farmers and small merchants, leaving them no choice except to stay in Mexico and starve to death or risk their lives sneaking across the border to work for less than minimum wage and sleep in fields in the USA?

All so Walmart can open stores in Mexico and Agribusiness can sell their corn and grain in Mexico?
