With regard to NAFTA, Michigan would be worse-off (the opposite of what an earlier post suggested). As for the rest of your shopping list, who knows?

I don't think there is any evidence that if many of those NAFTA-gone jobs came back into Michigan that it would be worse off --- likely they could drop many people off the welfare rolls if there were some assembly line or factory jobs for them. Funny how when cars were made in the USA with $20 an hour labor, you could find them selling for $3000-$4000 but with $0.50 or less labor costs, they're selling for $30,000 to $40,000.
