    That didn't happen on its own. It was US government policy to give preferential treatment to other countries, opening US markets wide, while letting those same countries close their markets to American made goods. This could only harm the American worker.

    The nail in the coffin was NAFTA. Ross Perot was right about the "great sucking sound" of American working class jobs disappearing to Mexico.
