    OK, what were his other accomplishments, or points of big influence? Anything bigger than NAFTA?

      First of all, NAFTA wasn’t Reich any more than the IRA was Bernie Sanders; it had been in the works since 1988 and his involvement wasn’t significant enough to merit a single mention in the Wikipedia article (unlike such people as Al Gore, Chairwoman of the Council of Economic Advisers Laura Tyson, Director of the National Economic Council Robert Rubin, and even Republican Congressman David Dreier, all of which were mentioned specifically by Clinton at the signing), so giving him the blame is absolutely ridiculous.

      As for HIS actual accomplishments, this reply is already plenty long, especially considering that you have probably made up your mind and won’t believe it no matter what, so I’m just gonna direct you to his Wikipedia article where you can see for yourself.

        OK, so in other words:

        • The Secretary of Labor’s input on how NAFTA would affect U.S. labor was insignificant
        • You’re not willing to list what other accomplishments of his were more significant
