so that efficiency and speed aren't the only important criteria in assessing things Even if the added security costs are minimal, they will be measurable. My sense is that a lot of international trade is based on rather thin profit margins. When you add in additional security costs, it may not make quite as much sense to open up that plant in Pakistan or the Philippines.
