THE LITTLE MAN The North American Free Trade Agreement, also known as NAFTA has had a major impact on the economic structure of the United States. I’m sure most blue-collared North Carolinians know exactly what I’m referring to. According to Congress, NAFTA’S benefits would greatly outnumber its costs to our country in the long run. Although some believe that this foreign trade agreement has brought the United States prosperity and unity with our neighboring countries, but unemployment has steadily risen, and the standard of living has steadily declined, because of this very agreement. Our textile and apparel industries are rapidly disappearing because of the relocating of our plants and our jobs to overseas countries. How could any true American foresee a prosperous outcome from this? How could any true American NOT see what it is doing to our devoted, hard-working Americans, (the ones, including myself, that are presently out of work due to overseas trade?) Our government seems to have lost us in the paperwork, or in a matter of speaking, left us for dead.
