After NAFTA (North Atlantic Free Trade Association), an agreement between the United States, Mexico, and Canada that would ideally create free borders and rid the world of tariffs, the economy was expected to grow in all three of these countries, eventually internationally. This neoliberalist view broke Article 27 of the Mexican Constitution, and large companies began to move into Mexico, such Nike and the more popular, well-known Mexican companies of Del Sol or Dole. Laborers working in these maquiladores made items that would attract tourists, such as handbags with Mexican art on them. However, the large companies now owned the land through the NAFTA agreement, and they were able to lower the price of the land and goods for peasant farmers that used their land to grow produce, corn, fruits, etc. to sell and survive off of. But if every year the minimum wage is lowered, these products made and sold in Mexico, whether they be through large companies or from a peasant farmer, do not provide a sufficient amount of money for the workers and laborers to live off of. Thus, more people have tried to illegally immigrate from Mexico into the United States, where NAFTA has helped laborers. However, they are not allowed to cross the border- only their products can.
