What does either of those towns have to do with the fact that 21 million jobs were created since NAFTA? Or that real wages are higher since NAFTA?

Lets hope some jobs were created during those 11+ years because the population of the US has grown more than 21 million since NAFTA's inception.

Currently at 296,747,774

In 1990 it was around 248,709,873

That is with just guessing the illegal population which most consider undercounted.

BTW... when jobs are created, but created without previous perks like 401k plans, affordable insurance, vacation time ect... I don't consider it creation of jobs worth comparing. Thus to compete in a global economy, jobs have been stripped of value in many ways.

But don't mind me, keep on ranting...

You have any proof the new jobs have no benefits or perks?
