Economy

We must guarantee our workers the training and education they need to compete in the global marketplace.

We cannot get more jobs in this economy until we have more customers for our products and our services.

The efficiency with which a nation produces and distributes its agricultural products largely determines the vitality, health, well-being, and economic strength of that nation.

NAFTA is the gateway to all of Latin America, to 700 million people.

There is no way any wealthy country in this world can increase jobs and incomes without increasing the number of people who buy that nation's products and services.

Rejecting NAFTA would, quite simply, put us on the wrong side of history.

Turning away from this opportunity would be a serious self-inflicted wound to our economy.

This economic program is beginning to work.

No longer can nations afford to build invisible walls at their borders because there are no longer national borders to free trade.

This agreement means more trade, more exports, and more jobs for the United States.

We are spending over 14 percent of our income on health care.

With the completion of the side accords, we have turned NAFTA into a pathbreaking trade agreement.
