Condor, the list is long enough. We don't buy much from any of those countries, but for decades we have exported "protection" to them, at no cost to them. I suspect that is about to end. Of course, our protection has ended virtually any threat to them for the forseeable future. However, I'll bet we can hurt them if we wish. With the egos involved, just making them irrelevant ought to be sufficient. What a bunch of midgets!

Hi Condor - it does seem very strange to me that we buy so little from France or Germany already.

Even stranger to look on a label to see where something was made, and see it labeled "Hecho en China." The Mexicans must love that.
