Yeah, Mexico always cheats, whatever, fine.

Look; my take is that most people I do business with will sometimes cheat, and it's my job to make sure that they don't cheat me.  I do a good job of protecting me and mine.  Unless you got someone else in charge of handling your affairs, you're doing the same thing as I do because virtually everyone you'll ever do business with has cheated on something.

This tread is for talking about whether we like import taxes or not.  I like all kinds of tax-cuts, including import tax-cuts.  I understand you want higher import taxes.  I'm saying that I don't want high import taxes even if it's supposed to help protect me from cheaters.

Tell that to the south Texas farmers who had to watch their crops dry up and ruin in the fields. They had already paid for the water.

Read the article. It is about the doha round trade which may not survive due to farm subsidies. Now, read the thread and you will see that I am the only one who addressed the article. My bad, as I didn't address the socialization of 3rd world countries that free trade agreements encourage. My feelings just weren't feeling right. Sarcasm
