NAFTA: TV Nation travels to Mexico to take advantage of the North American Free Trade Agreement and make the show with cheaper labor and maximize profits, just like GM and Converse. Taxi: New Yorkers know cabs may be difficult to get at rush hour or during a rainstorm. Black New Yorkers know another reason a cab may be hard to get drivers refuse to stop for them. TV Nation goes to the streets to find out who is more likely to get a cab in New York City, Yaphet Kotto, a distinguished black actor, or Louis Bruno, a convicted white felon. Appleton: Appleton, Minnesota has hit hard times lately. So what did they do to improve the economy? They built a prison, of course, using private and public funds. TV Nation goes to Appleton to discuss with the community the only thing missing to make their dreams come true inmates. Love Canal: Remember Love Canal, the small town near Niagara Falls? You may only remember the evacuation that occurred there due to the leakage of toxic waste into homes.
