This book is a study of how a slick Bill Clinton and his staff backed
big corporations against labor, and shoved NAFTA down the throats of working
people. The Democratic Party sensed that corporate executives were more
important to their future than a few confused and disorganized labor unions,
and decided to push NAFTA. Only H. Ross Perot clearly announced what would
happen, but he was easily marginalized by media spin. Today factories are
relocating to Mexico, just as he predicted. This book is a sandwich: part
one starts at a U.S. factory in New York, part two is a detailed exposition
of the insider machinations that pushed NAFTA through Congress, and part
three is a visit to that factory as it begins operations in Mexico. The
middle of the sandwich is overly detailed and a tough read, but the first
and last parts save the book. It's not often that someone who inherited
lots of money takes the trouble to discover how the working class lives.
