-Caveat Lector- To the editor, The North American Free Trade Agreement's (NAFTA'S) Chapter 11. The flow of jobs overseas isn't the only consequence of deliberately misnamed "trade" agreements. NAFTA has opened our nation's borders wider than ever to illegal immigration. and the proposed Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA) would worsen this already huge problem. The issue that should be of greatest concern, however, is the continuing loss of our nation's independence because of these agreements. The April 18th, 2004 New York Times reported on how a NAFTA tribunal (created under NAFTA's Chapter 11) had been given superiority over our nation's state and Federal Courts in a dispute involving a Canadian real estate company. In that same report, former congressman and former Federal appeals court judge Abner Mikva commented, "If Congress had known that there was anything like this in NAFTA, they never would voted for it." The FTAA will compromise America's independence just as surely as the European Union entrapped its member nations. Our leaders shouldn't be proposing more of these pacts; they should be withdrawing us from pacts that already unfavorably impact our jobs, borders and national independence.
