About Kaplan´s article, ¨Clinton and Obama should declare truce over NAFTA¨, one thing really bugs me. Kaplan seems to associate NAFTA with China and products from China.

Dental Tourism
That's a great article. It's nice to read an honest account of travelling for dental treatment, including your natural fears, and how you got through them.
