Since NAFTA passed in 1994 the employment level in the US has increased from 124.6 million (Jan 1995) to 141.6 million (Jun 2005), real GDP has increased 38% (2004 annual vs. 1994 annual) , and the average annual unemployment rate has been below that of 1994 every year since then. I'd say it has been a success.
