There is an untold story behind the illegal immigrations story

Press Release Body = People with good intentions support the mass migration of
workers from Mexico. However, they automatically ferment the race to the bottom for
workers in both countries.

The U.S. Government sponsored and funded the moving of factories to Mexico starting
in 1956. It was supposed to be a temporary program but it never ended. It was put in
place to help the Mexican economy while bringing in cheaper products for the
American consumers.

For a few years a small group of factories were moved to Mexico but by 1992, more
than 2,000 factories were moved and after the NAFTA trade agreement was passed, the
number quickly doubled to more than 4,000 factories. After getting NAFTA passed,
President Clinton had to rush billions of dollars to Mexico to save the Peso.

This proves that so called Free Trade is a failure and has a history of failures.
Mexico reports a low unemployment rate and so apparently, there are jobs that
Mexicans will not take.
Millions have fled to the USA seeking better jobs.
At the same time many of the factories are now moving out of Mexico and going to
China where the cost of labor is even cheaper. On top of this, China is contracting
even cheaper labor in places like Jordan. It is an endless spiral to the bottom.

In the end, a working poor class as been established in the USA and an impoverished
destitute class in Mexico with a wage slave class being created outside both
countries.

Free Trade is not trade. The main commodities are workers who are put on a world
trading block to compete with one another down to the lowest levels of wage slave
and even child labor. Production has become portable and mobile being moved from
place to place based on the cheapest labor markets.

As a result, economies are being chopped into pieces with governments acting as
brokers. This leaves a vacuum of power since nations spred their interest throughout
the world. A new kind of colonialism follows the process and nations find they have
to use force to protect their interests. Obviously, Wars and terrorism has followed
the process.

All people of good will must come together to stop this terrible economic disease.
Franklin Roosevelt said economic diseases are highly communicable. Today they are an
epidemic. Workers have no voice in the process being controlled by elite groupings,
governments tied with transnational corporations and international organizations
like the WTO.
