No fancy number or statistics. I just know there’s a lot of shuttered textile manufacturing facilities here in Aiken County, SC.

The fallacy of the article is that it assumes, without making any attempt to prove it, that these facilities would still be operating had NAFTA not been passed.
Since most textile and apparel business went to the East, not to Mexico, and so was unaffected by NAFTA, it is a truly idiotic argument.
