So which is it?
Doesn't NA in NAFTA refer to North America? Now you are referring to overseas agreements. And Burma still isn't in NA.
Your graphs don't distinguish between cause and effect. You can't point to a year and say that is when NAFTA came in, and that is the same year that bad things started happening. It is illogical. Especially when you refer to 40 year slides in economic conditions. But if you did want to link NAFTA to a decline in wages, you would have to accept that when wages came up, it was because NAFTA was repealed. When was that again?
