When Congress voted on the North American Free Trade Agreement in 1993, our trade deficit with Canada and Mexico was $8 billion. Now its $115 billion.
Twelve years ago our nation's trade deficit stood at $38 billion.Now due to a series of bilateral and multilateral trade agreements, it has jumped to $618 billion.

I prefer any free trade agreement that diminishes the ability of government to regulate the business of free people.
Free trade is kryptonite to big, centralized government.
