Message | Mr Speaker, this bill will inflict great harm on many sectors who depend on foreign imports to a great deal. It will also hurt consumers by increasing prices on many goods from abroad. Our economy cannot shut itself off from the global market without harming to itself. Autarchy is a myth, we should focus on specialization instead to remain competitive.

Random quote: "Soldiers are not the enemies of the movement. They're potential allies. They're more than that. Soldiers are the only people in America who are paying a stiff price for this war. Everybody else profits. Soldiers are the ones losing their lives, losing friends, having their lives disrupted. The real victims of American imperialism are its soldiers." - Fred Gardner |
