Speaking of foolish claims, where is Schlafly’s evidence that NAFTA is responsible for illegal immigration apart from the fact that some of them hop on top of a train to get here, and Texas tried to expand its highway system?

“Speaking of foolish claims, where is Schlafly’s evidence that NAFTA is responsible for illegal immigration apart from the fact that some of them hop on top of a train to get here, and Texas tried to expand its highway system?”

It’s already been mentioned several times.

NAFTA opened the Mexican market to cheaper American grain. Thousands of Mexican farms were put out of business. The unemployed Mexican farm workers headed north in a huge surge. The chain migration from this continues to the present.

Empirical evidence only seems foolish to the ideologue.
