I lived through it. It was a mad dash for cash, every greedy bastard jumped on board. I recollect the unions setting up shop in Mexico right in step with the auto industry. So publicly, they didn't like it but were chasing the $$$$$.

"Setting up shop?" - this makes no sense. What benefit did the unions have in supporting NAFTA knowing that the auto factories were going away to Mexico and utilizing non-union labor? There would be NO benefit. If you could provide some evidence that union leaders supported NAFTA maybe that would clear things up. Otherwise, I have to think you got the facts mixed up.
