Shoot the seven sisters first. They're the antithesis of a free trader.

As soon as you can walk through a firestorm of .308, darling.

Let me clarify that..."when you import 60% of a product that is absolutely ESSENTIAL to your entire economy,,,,,"

Total dependence on a foreign supply of a product that your entire economy is completely dependent on,,,is much, much, MUCH different than importing discretionary items like clothes, autos, electronics, toys, etc.

Actually, we PRODUCE over 60% of the World's food, THE #1 commodity on the planet. We have the biggest leverage bar in the World trade game.
