nafta would imply most are going to Mexico or other parts south of the border. It's cheaper to make it in India, China and/or other Asian countries. And there is now a push for China to outsource to Africa. The TPP treaty push is a little late to the party.

I completely agree, Col Dona Marie Iversen! Could you imagine a US where US manufacturers went to Africa for cheap labor though. The left would be freaking out even if it brought jobs to the African continent.
