I just loved how they put the spin on their agenda through the
SPP website. Every single aspect, every possible angle,
of the conspiracy theorist's ideas were countered in short time due to their paranoia. They don't want the sheeple of America to know the truth.
On their myth vs. fact page, the first thing they address is the "signing of agreements". Here's a snippet:
Myth: The SPP was an agreement signed by Presidents Bush and his Mexican and Canadian counterparts in Waco, TX, on March 23, 2005.
Fact: The SPP is a dialogue to increase security and enhance prosperity among the three countries. The SPP is not an agreement nor is it a treaty.
In fact, no agreement was ever signed.

Of course they can't sign a "agreements" under the terms that the SPP has been built. That would be unconstitutional. Here's proof:
No state shall enter into any treaty, alliance, or confederation; grant letters of marque and reprisal; coin money; emit bills of credit; make
anything but gold and silver coin a tender in payment of debts; pass any bill of attainder, ex post facto law, or law impairing the obligation of
contracts, or grant any title of nobility.

Article 1, section 10 states clearly in the Constitution that a confederation shall not be entered into. By "signing agreements" under the terms of
the SPP, treason will have been committed.
And it's sad that more people don't understand that.
Every other section of the SPP myth vs. fact page can be gone through in the same manner. It's rather humorous.
The tax system that you referred to in your post was the bill
"
S. 3622". Here's a little
explaination of that bill:
The sole purpose of this bill is to "better" the living standard in Mexico as to be comparable with the United States and Canada. Our tax
dollars are going to be spent on Mexico's roads, schools (and systems), job training, and to facilitate getting Mexico into the "technology age".
There will be no choice given to American citizens as to whether or not we wish to help another country, this will be forced. There will be no
choice given to American citizens as to whether or not we wish to better our educational systems. There will be no choice given to American citizens
as to whether or not we wish to ensure our own citizens have the necessary job training.

S. 3622 never made it very far off the floor. It was sent to the "Committee on Foreign Relations" for approval, and it passed it's due when
Congress changed hands.
You are right, however to say that they gave too much information. They have indeed backtracked in a hurry. There were significant amounts of people
that exercised their right to "complain" about such a thing.
What a dumb Government we have.
