I am talking about setting up a trade cartel amonst the willing.

The whole cartel has to participate, otherwise its useless.

The point behind what I am talking about as opposed to flat tarriffs (which we have them right now) is to expand the market base through development.

Market base is people who CONSUME goods and services, not SUPPLY them.

Cartels (such as OPEC) inherently violate the principals of true free trade. Revenue tariffs do not.
