Is NAFTA in the best interest of The United States?

A few weeks ago, we posted to inform you about President Trump’s views on NAFTA and how he believes it should be changed.  Today, I’d like to right about the pros and cons of NAFTA so viewers can form their own opinions. With NAFTA, trade between the three countries more than quadrupled, leading to lower prices on groceries and oil in the U.S. The U.S. also increased exports, especially in the form of services, benefitting the economy. NAFTA hurt the U.S. when manufacturers moved jobs to Mexico for lower labor costs. Although NAFTA did increase exports, it also increased U.S. trade deficit.
