isn't that amazing. actually, the implications are huge for any previous designs to create closed systems.. e.g. a british commonwealth... which is essentially what NAFTA was shaping into.... job distribution/goods creation outside of the "zone" pretty much nips that in the bud.

maybe someone else knows if tech is going across the border, but i'd have to assume those same jobs can be replicated in china and india or else where in asia etc.

bottom line.. for every job around the world, there is an infinite line of people living in china and india prepared to step into it.

if somehow countries feel they can reverse this trend by closing their systems and raising barriers, i suppose you may have companies making no money, but survivor countries will be those most able to be self sufficient... usa could probably do that.. it has most everything except energy (in its present form). but you would then have a rationed government directed internal system of trade. got King George?
