Nafta has restrictions around worker pay. Overall though it might be bad for auto workers in the US but much more beneficial to the average American.

NAFTA is horrible for the average American. It destroys unions and wages. It allows a massive export of our jobs to other countries.
You have a cite around workers pay? That wasn’t in the original plan.

Is protectionism really the solution?

Yes. Everyone else does it. Otherwise union labor will not be as competitive in America.
I’d rather have some guardrails to keep the labor here.

In this case, yes. NAFTA screws the average American and boosts the stock market which pur government is beholden to.

Yeah, I’m already paying more for American made products, in search of better oversight and safety. If it offered workers better pay, that would be a huge win for “voting with my wallet”.
