28. Sorry

I misunderstood your argument. Either way, I'd rather tax that farmcorp even if it means that the Honduran gets screwed over.

Otherwise you enrich the corp, the foreign farmer and you impoverish the U.S. government and the U.S. worker by loss of taxes and wages. How do you propose to uplift all? Tariffs on trade goods from Honduras?

What is the benefit to the American worker or government by allowing fair trade with that Honduran?
