i second the taxing into oblivion!!!! other countries we ar edealing with are fighting the incoming porducts we offer with taxes. they favor tax incentives for homeland companies, subsidies to buy their own good and many other tactics all while accusing us of shutting the spicket off when someone from the us even begins to discuss the notion. i think closing our borders to and eliminating all preferred trade status treaties would help generate the revenues needed that we once had befor our borders opened. now south american countries ship goods through mexico to avoid taxation. china subsidizes products to export them to undermine other economies and get a foothold in the country their exported to. i think BRAZIL has it right!!!! tax the hell out of anything coming in we already make here and watch the unemployment rate plummet like a sinking ship..titanic style!!!!!!!
