I don’t know why NAFTA is called “free trade” because a coworker had to pay a $400 duty to get a piece of test equipment into Mexico. What is “free” about that?

It's not "free trade;" it's "heavily-managed-and-massively-unbalanced free trade."

Free Trade = Rigid Trade

Meaning the USA still pays tariffs and other countries like China does not.
