Explanation / Answer

North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) is a bilateral trade agreement with Canada and Mexico to USA. It has many benefits as well as some major loopholes from American point of view for example, US Manufacturing labourers has been not getting job as these jobs gone to Mexican people. NAFTA fail to create more jobs in USA as growing import from the partnering countries.

I think that the U.S. should back out of NAFTA as it provides US nothing but many types of trade deficit with Mexico / Canada and odd economic growth. Many times current president Honourable’ Donald Trump has opposed the NAFTA for creating an unfair ground to trade with America, allowing Mexico and Canada to steal jobs from the United States. It is opening the border to cheap, tariff-free goods. Trump wants to bring factory jobs back to USA. He knows the problem faced by US manufacturing and other labourers that’s why he tries to end this one side beneficial agreement.
