So you'd rather pay the manipulated US price of 29.54 cents a pound than the manipulated world price of 13.19 cents a pound? Is that some sort of female logic?
Well phony "free traders" say paying manipulated world price(s) is better. This statement shows how phony "free trade" is, where our country must give up industries, have no tariffs, no price supports, while its ok for other countries to have them. This is utter deceit on your part, and its partly why your philosophy is so bankrupt.
But the difference between the manipulated world price and manipulated U.S. price acts as "multiplier," creating employment and encouraging capital formation. I read it somewhere on FR.
