Our communists empire on the move again. All hail King Obama!
Morocco is Muslim. And filled with America haters. Perfect.
FUBO
Obama has not met a muslim country he doesn’t help.
Given that California is one of the most liberal states in our union, with liberal representation, this demonstrates that Obama does not give a damn about his party.
All of this needs to be put into a narrative by the Republicans to drown out the 1st Idiot’s attempt to paper over his daily incompetence.
Zero comes out with a jobs plan, Pubbies step up to the microphone and hit him over the head with a litany of idiotic deals such as this right down to Solyndra and the Gibson fiasco. Rinse and repeat.
This is nothing new - the US has spent the entire postwar period building up overseas competitors and granting them preferential one-way trade treatment.
Remarkable.
Is it just me but does the defense in the article make no sense?
It says the California growers aren’t making enough to meet local demand anyways and the Moroccan olives aren’t exported directly to the US either. Yet, markets like these are intrinsically linked. California olives no doubt cost more than cheap foreign olives and would thus produce only as much as the price-demand ratio held. So cheapening up Moroccan olives would have the effect of driving down prices for foreign olives and thus lower demand locally... thus reducing the olives sold by Californian makers.
I mean, that’s my quick economics thinking on it but I don’t see how supposed gov’t intellectuals could overlook this.
To me this is the stuff that pokes holes thru all the big butt unions huff and bluff. Our federal govt is destroying an industry that could possibly be dues paying union workers somewhere down the road if they aren’t already.
Hear any peeps out of them? Nope, you sure don’t.
