You don't buy any products made in China either?

Actually I would prefer not to buy things from China. These days one frequently has no choice.

But that's not the issue. The issue is whether or not there are ever legitimate reasons for prohibitting voluntary transactions. I think there are. The "Libertarians" apparently think there are not. ("The U.S. government has no business ordering Americans not to trade with or travel to Cuba or any other nation,")

Oh, you certainly have a choice. But like most people, I think the convenience outweighs your conviction.

Typical misrepresentation of the issue and the accompaning incorrect conclusion.
