Rounder Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 Bring jobs home with tarrifs on goods made elsewhere. In India there is a 60% tarrif on imported motorcycles. Guess what happens, companies like Harley open factories in India to sell in that market. We are saps letting corps run offshore manufacturing and then dump the goods here killing all kinds of jobs.

Capt.Storm Posted May 29, 2016 Author Share Posted May 29, 2016 NAFTA is essentially a tariff agreement designed to facilitate trade and ensure that North American producers receive preferences over goods not originating in the U.S., Canada or Mexico. According to the International Monetary Fund, trade among the three NAFTA countries more than tripled between 1993 and 2007. But NAFTA is also highly controversial. Some economists and policy analysts argue that tariffs interfere with free market ideals by diverting resources to industries in which the U.S. is a less efficient, high-cost producer. Another common argument is that NAFTA encourages companies to outsource American jobs to lower-cost countries and the loss of tariffs reduces the money available for government programs.

can-amsledder Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 Close North America Free Trade Agreement. With NAFTA you are dealing with counties with similar economies. Maybe not so much Mexico but they are not a third word county like China or India. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

can-amsledder Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 Not confusing at all. NAFTA is an agreement between Canada, USA and Mexico to not charge tariffs to each other on products made in those countries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capt.Storm Posted May 29, 2016 Author Share Posted May 29, 2016 (edited) I guess where I might be thinking wrong is that I thought nafta made it easier for US companies to move to countries other than Canada /Mexico and send their stuff back without tariffs. This line almost supports my thinking?

Notice how many auto makers are down there building cars for the USA and Canada? Thank NAFTA for that. Mexico should have been left out of that agreement.

can-amsledder Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 Like I said "maybe not so much Mexico". When Mexico was invited in they were probably thinking it would help keep the Mexicans in Mexico. That didn't work out so well either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
