Either we think the U.S. restrictions are important and worthwhile, or we don't. If they are not, the solution should be to eliminate them and/or scale them back, not bypass the process by allowing foreigners and transnationals to operate with fewer restrictions.

The same goes for Prescription Drugs and the FDA, and any other number of subjects.

I disagree. This is exactly the thinking of the free traders. Make it easier to get them across the border for money. Gotta keep that money flowing.

Regardless of what the communist and socialist in our country want, they win when we lower our standards. Just think of any doctor with any degree coming from a third world country and practicing here. What about nurse licenses or any licensed people? Do we drop requirements?

We have to fight this injustice.

Not even close. Maybe I didn't communicate very well, cuz you didn't understand me.

I'm not talking about reducing standards... I'm talking about reducing unnecessary bureacracy, if it exists. In the case of truckers, I think most of the requirements should be in place. So why on earth would it be okay to let foreigners operate without meeting those same requirements? Answer: we shouldn't!
