Cheap TVs have been coming in to this country from Asia for decades before
NAFTA. First it was Japan. Now it is Korea and Taiwan who are the main
exporters of cheap TVs to the USA. NAFTA at leasts gets some of the money spent
on cheap TVs back into the USA. NAFTA plants are located along the Mexican/USA
border and the Mexican workers spend much of their wages shopping in the USA
creating jobs on the USA side of the border. So the RCA TV plant in Mexico
should mean more jobs in the USA for Americans living near one of the border
towns that caters to Mexican shoppers.
