What Is Hillary's Position on NAFTA Today?

[snapcat]

We have a primary coming up in Kentucky, and if someone from the Hillary Camp could clarify her position on NAFTA I would appreciate it. Her position seems to change from day to day.

Signed, a Concerned Citizen ....

 

[snapcat]

Oh my! It appears nobody knows!

Perhaps tomorrow some one will know.

 

[syntax]

She was for it before she was against it.

 

[Glafna]

Very clarifying. So, is she against it, or for it again??

 

[syntax]

It depends on what "is" is.

 

[snapcat]

Perhaps someone could text her to get today's position?

 

[Lostlover]

To answer your question Snapcat... what way is the wind blowing?

 

[greydog]

Oh, where oh, where is Lancelva... he could tell us!

Perhaps someone could text her to get today's position?

I don't think her campaign can afford the charge.

 

[snapcat]

I don't think her campaign can afford the charge.

I think that you are right! It'll be interested to see what she says in the Ohio debate, tonight. Perhaps she'll make a decision about where she stands.

of course, pigs might fly out of my butt, too .......

I hope you watched the MSNBC debate, since, after some whining and referencing SNL, she talked about it.

That was unbelievable! I am stunned how turned off to her I have become in the last two months. Thank god she revealed herself(I guess that is one thing a long primary season is good for).

 

[tmb1]

Are we sure she isnt a republican because she sure acts like one of Roves minions in the way she attacks Obama. she is dispicable!

 

[snapcat]

Well, go figure. Now she says she was always against it.

pardon me, but my head is spinning right now ...

Opt out of NAFTA if she can't renegotiate? I hope you guys aren't actually believing the bullshit coming from her mouth. To be honest this actually makes me mad that this receives air time. It would decimate both the American and Canadian economies. "Free trade" has brought us lower tariffs meaning lower prices, which is good for consumers and stimulates economic growth on both sides of the border. If she's so hell bent on actually doing something, she should address China and the Asian markets which steal American jobs with low wages and piss poor environmental laws. THAT is where the jobs are going.

 

[JackFTwist]

NAFTA works here and here, devastates here and there. I live where is devastation.

In all of her speeches, in her books, in Bill's book, in everything, somehow we were never informed until just these past weeks that she was always against NAFTA. What bullshit. She often called it one of the great accomplishments of the Bill Clinton era.

 

[rotary]

As a consumer society, we have to decide if low prices and abundant choice is what we always want or are we willing to pay more for fewer goods produced in America.

The financial success of Walmart and the Chinese-produced products the company sells leaves little room to ponder.

 

[Kurn]

Senator Clinton would re-tool trade agreements so that they would disfavor trading

partners who have significantly lower social and environmental standards.

I'm going to be kind. Rotary, I can see you're only 22 years old; youth is the province of idealism. Sadly, a lot of idealistic ideas just don't work in a practical world.

NAFTA has been a travesty for the Mexicans.

What actually happened was that a lot of Mexican companies couldn't compete, and went out of business. This brought about a domino effect, and it wasn't too long after NAFTA was signed that Mexicans crossed over the border, illegally, en masse.

The mass exodus didn't happen until after NAFTA was signed., and now we have 12 million illegal immigrants.

NAFTA has been a disaster for both the US and Mexico. The people who benefit are big corporations. Oh, surprise, surprise. It's not like it wasn't predicted. Remember Ross Perot talking about NAFTA and the "great sucking sound" of jobs out of America? ROSS PEROT was RIGHT! It seems like every one of these "free-trade" agreements mean the same thing; How many more Americans can we put out of work?

NAFTA, CAFTA and the American people get the SHAFTA.

What's Obamas position on NAFTA? At least Dennis Kucinch was crystal clear "Cancel NAFTA". Will Obama do the same thing?
