Factcheck.org debunks one of Ron Paul's pet conspiracy theories:
Paul claims that a secret conspiracy composed of the Security and Prosperity Partnership and a cabal of foreign companies is behind plans to build a NAFTA Superhighway as the first step toward creating a North American Union. But the NAFTA Superhighway that Paul describes is a myth, and the groups supposedly behind the plans are neither secret nor nefarious.
See also the fundraising letter I flagged back in October and Jamie Kirchik's TNR piece on him for more.
14 states already have legislation concerning it. Canada has legilations concerning it. The fact that you Don't want to believe it will not make it go away.
Call it what you want. It is still there.
