If it wasn't for NAFTA a lot of these automotive suppliers would move their engineernig entirely out of the country. It's precisely because they can manufacture in Mexico and contract engineering work to India that allows them to keep a US operation (which employees Americans) running.

NAFTA isn't perfect, but it's not evil.
