>I looked at the link - and will read his detailed article http://www.epi.org/publication/briefingpapers_bp147/ while I'm on a plane tomorrow. NAFTA is one of those things I admit I haven't studied much and all I know about it is the jibberish I've seen on the news - so I know I do not have the full picture. I do think that while a lot of factory workers have lost their jobs I think there are other elements to in play here besides just NAFTA - for example automation and machines and robots have taken a lot of those jobs too - but I haven't even tried to find out numbers on any of that either.

Have a good flight, Victor.
I wish I were heading your way.
Snow in the forecast and the golf shots exist only in my dreams.
