Message | I'd go for this if we have strict immigration laws. I hate the E.U. model. |
Date | 14:30:24, October 25, 2005 CET | From | We Say So! Party | To | Debating the Open Trade Means No Tariffs. |
Message | We disagree. The current laws state that only certain goods have tariffs imposed upon them. Those goods are those deemed strategically important to our economy. What this bill does is remove the right to protect our industries, which could be extremely bad for our economy. |
