Commerce department to investigate Mexican Sugar.
Not only is Mexico dumping it's citizens on the U.S. economy but now they are dumping tariff and quota free subsidized sugar (Mexico owns 20% of their sugar industry) that is heavily impacting the U.S. Sugar industry. Palm Beach County has a big sugar industry and if the industry's charge is true, this impacts us all.
The implementation of NAFTA on January 1, 1994 brought the immediate elimination of tariffs
on more than one-half of Mexico's exports to the U.S. and more than
one-third of U.S. exports to Mexico. Within 10 years of the
implementation of the agreement, all U.S.-Mexico tariffs would be
eliminated except for some U.S. agricultural exports to Mexico that were
to be phased out within 15 years. Wikipedia
