20. Indirectly modifying NAFTA could turn into a disaster
" I understand that NAFTA can't be changed directly under the terms of WTO. But there are ways to effectively renegotiate it even if you aren't nominally, technically renegotiating it. "

This would rouse a firestorm of legal wrangling from the Federalist society and almost every Fortune 1000 legal dept.

It sounds more like a way to create loopholes while making NAFTA appear benign. NAFTA has radical language and WTO will not permit changes. I think it's possible that Clark is selling us a Clinton Health Plan (a show).
