NAFTA guaranteed no rights for workers, only 'free trade' that did not include freedom of travel. Companies get tariff-free access to new markets and cheap workers with no rights (while still collecting subsidies from governments), workers get increasingly lower wages and restrictions on where they can work. All the energy wasted on racist hysteria over Mexicans could be better used creating a NAFTA that works.
