I hadn’t heard that about the textiles, but it doesn’t surprise me. They’ve been playing us for suckers for so long.

International trade is a beast unto itself. Most nations have some nefarious stuff going on....including the black markets....the 'rules' are primarily for the giants to abide by but it's the smaller companies that assist them in getting through the loopholes...and that in turn trickles down to the street markets......legal or not it is commerce's underbelly and it does 'provide' avenues for people in those country's to survive.
