Free trade has many different properties that make it both good and bad. I believe that the positives aspects of free trade outweigh the negative, but the negatives are still significant. Having a free trade agreement with another country can cause a loss of income to local businesses, but it allows businesses to step up their work ethic and improve products and production.

They have what is called North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). NAFTA was established on January 1st, 1994. The agreement follows the rules of the World Trade Organization (WTO). Before the WTO was established there was the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT). The GATT was established in 1948 during a United Nations meeting. They ended up replacing it with the WTO in 1994 but it fully commenced on January 1, 1995. The WTO liberalizes and watches trading around the globe to make sure that they are following the laws.

This agreement manly focused on tariff elimination between these countries. A large negative in doing free trade with other countries is that it is harder to have efficient quality control on products. This can be due to the fact that other countries may not have the same
