Everything I've read suggests that with NAFTA we are better off than without it. I wish folks like Trump/Thiel would point us to studies that show otherwise instead of repeating their rhetoric about job losses.

Further, I'm quite skeptical that mfg jobs will ever return. If low wages didn't force the death of low skilled jobs then surely automation will.

I know there are a few hackers here that follow politics and also support Trump, so I'd love to hear their answers to these concerns, as I simply haven't found these concerns addressed elsewhere.
