My pocket book (and yours) will take a hit. Then that will put pressure on the minimum wage just to keep pace with the new higher prices. The knee bone is connected to the thigh bone, etc., etc. Unless you're one of the new (high paying) job holders, you'll be hard pressed to keep your head above water.
Amiright?

quote:So the implication is that trade taxes and regulations decrease the fairness of the market? Fair enough, and I support decreasing regulations HERE. But how does increasing taxes on the market make it fairer? It seems the governments are the true beneficiary of these things, and the citizens, for the most part, are those who don't get a fair deal.
