Do you really, really believe that Sarah Palin believes that NAFTA creates a level playing field?
“Do you really, really believe that Sarah Palin believes that NAFTA creates a level playing field?”
I am using her words:
1. Trump arranged for Carrier to stay in the United States.
2. Palin launches forth a denunciation of crony capitalism, which she declares is what Trump engaged in, while admitting she does not know the full details.
3. She says businesses should be able to locate where ever they choose.
4. Therefore, Carrier going to Mexico, for her, is evidence of a level playing field.
5. Therefore, NAFTA, to her, is part and parcel of a level playing field.
You do realize, that NAFTA, a federal government creation only, establishes financial incentives for companies to move to Mexico? And it creates financial penalties for companies to remain in the U.S.?
It does that because labor is much cheaper in Mexico, and does not have the regulations imposed on businesses in the United States, and other costly items, and allows those products to enter the United States duty free.
In return, the United States allows ignorant and unskilled Mexicans into our country to compete for whatever jobs are left.
