I remember Duke v. Edwards (vote for the crook—it’s important) YIKES!!!
Anyway, I hope I’m not hijacking this thread here, but I have been trying to do homework on the candidates. I have a new issue I am very concerned with and that is food safety (pet & human) and our free trade system (particularly with China) Just last week Alabama has banned seafood from China because it contains illegal antibiotics and such. Not to mention the wheat gluten, rice protein and corn gluten problems making it’s way into pet and human consumption. We are importing Chinese crawfish into Louisiana for goodness sakes and it’s cheaper thn buying local stuff!
Kevmo has been kind enough to point out that Duncan Hunter is taking a stand on this issue and I wanted to learn more. What is the difference between free trade and fair trade?
Is there a good reason why we are importing things such as wheat, corn etc... that cam be grown here instead of paying subsidies? Wouldn’t it help our economy to keep it here? Or am I missing something? I would appreciate any info.
Why is this not more of an issue?
Thanks!
I’d like the answers to some of that too!
