the NAFTA import boom, shifted to ports in California where the chinese stuff come in.

Imports - partners:
Canada 17.4%, China 12.5%, Mexico 10.7%

We get more from China that Mexico but its not like there isn't a billion Chinese working for $.5 and the Mexicans are working for $2. When considering repegging their currency, the Chinese aren't worried that their products will become too expensive compared to the American products. Their competition right now is Mexico. Personally I'd rather help out NAFTA partners and democracies than ChiComs.

No, just China crap, not Nafta.

Even so, some of that Asian freight is being re-routed through Mexico where it's still cheaper and faster to offload, put it on rail and bring it into the states. Strikes by the stevadores and outrageous wages being paid out there are making it so......guy gets $90.00 for carrying a clipboard and counting containers!
