"Isn't it funny how the empires founded on the tight embrace of free trade are so protectionist when it's something that the third world does better?"

  1. Yes… and no. I’d expand, but I think the internet has a character limit.

  2. Did you want to say they’re all actually protectionist regardless of what the third world is up to?

Don't be shy, you can comment too!

 
Some things to keep in mind: You can style comments using Textile. In particular, *text* will get turned into text and _text_ will get turned into text. You can post a link using the command "linktext":link, so something like "google":http://www.google.com will get turned in to google. I may erase off-topic comments, or edit poorly formatted comments; I do this very rarely.
