Answer 1

yes

Answer 2

well the last time i actually found something that didn't say "made in China" was a while ago....we import so many things its hard to find a balance. We make money by importing, but lose it at the same time.

Answer 3

While NAFTA had good intentions, it's turned America's corporations into even bigger greed mongerers.  It's a disaster.  Pretty much aced middle-class Americans out of jobs.

Answer 4

They have got us stuck in the middle-The only way a lot of people can afford things are by buying overseas.This country is litterally destroying itself.We are getting more & more dependent on the goverment.

Answer 5

Well there are not even close to enough manufactorers left in our country to supply all the necessities we need so its kind of impossible, especially for Lower income people. I vote for those against Nafta and other unfair trade agreements like the ones we have in China.

Answer 6

Define Americans.

The "American" public school system is educating thousands of children whose parents are illegally in the United States. Some of the children were not born in the U.S., and are also here illegally. The Federal Department of Education, nor the individual state's Department's of Education do not ask for birth certificates or any other proof of citizenship. The Education system doesn't ask the Chinese student, the Asian student, the Iraqi student, or any child from any country to prove citizenship before attending our schools.

Schools take them in, and if they can't speak English, the schools apply for Federal money to provide special classes for them. This, in turn, requires that schools hire special teachers. Round and round we go!

My grandmother was a Cherokee Indian, whose grandmother was forced to leave her home in Georgia; forced, by the Government, to attend a boarding school where she was beaten and denied food if she was caught speaking Cherokee.

I avoid buying any product I can if I know that product is from any country other than America; but, it gets harder and harder to find anything that says "Made in America".

A person can't even talk to an English-speaking person when contacting their phone, electric, gas, or cable provider! They've all out-sourced to a foreign country.
