As a matter of fact, I responded to your post on the steel tariffs. I doubt the numbers of the protectionism you alleged but your post on that matter was not addressed to me and I don't now much about the subject.

Regarding Bill's sex life, I was responding to this post(not yours):

Message 17340750

And the response was rendered in a manner in which the intellectually deficient poster it originated with would be able to understand the message. In other words, I used small words so the petty idiot could follow it.

I'll accept your apology for misleading the Board whenever you are ready.

< I want to talk about the impact of developed-world protectionism on developing economies... >

Tariffs, taxes, and protectionism suck. That pretty much sums it up. In the long run, protectionism produces a more inefficient market shifting the costs onto consumers. Free trade all the way (assuming all countries are playing on equal footing). I don't see much debate here among rational thinking adults. But then you never know....
