But without the benefit of NAFTA. Mexico could slip into an era of economic stagnation and decline. Any erosion of the recent progress made south of our border may lead to significant increases in Mexican unemployment. and consequently raise the tide of illegal immigration. drug traffic and social unrest. Should NAFTA fail. not only will we be relinquishing the multiple economic and political benefits of this monumental agreement. but we will saddle future generations of Americans with serious national social problems. I have said that. this is an enormous agreement. towering in its scope. and I would never claim all 2.000 pages are perfect.
