Wouldn't make sense for florida produce to ever be as cheap as mexico produce, the latter has to be picked green and transported a thousand miles. You have to compare oranges to oranges and mexico produce is for the most part inferior when it hits the supermarket.

no idea,

You present yourself as a very well connected guy because of your niceness - I ask you about key military technology that is going to possibly keep honest money at bay through ARMIES and NAVIES and AIR FORCES and you have NO CLUE and NO IDEA if china is making any of the parts of the drones or the mules - I guess you aren't as well connected as I thought.

except that gold is up, as it should, and as matter of logic, must, until your oranges are as inexpensive where you are as oranges in ... mexico, say

Gold is up - mogambo said powdered milk was up more - but did you read the article I just posted to bart that vietnam boys want to export it but the gubbment wont let them - I dont know all the reasons - but maybe if they try to go against the gubbment and export they will get to meet some nice terminator type flying drones - that may or may not have parts sources in china - but you have no idea. sigh

(If only they held gold - they could stay anonymous eh?)

Highly sensitive information about the religious beliefs, political opinions and even the sex life of Britons travelling to the United States is to be made available to US authorities when the European Commission agrees to a new system of checking passengers.

Mugabe bans food imports

(I just cant eat gold like I can my oranges)

Harare - As shortages of basic goods worsen in crisis-hit Zimbabwe, President Robert Mugabe's government has decided to ban the import of groceries for resale, it emerged on Friday.

The ban, which will come into effect on August 1, will cripple the businesses of thousands of cross-border traders who make a living out of buying and selling goods currently in short supply in Zimbabwe.

Under new government regulations published earlier this month, it will no longer be possible to import groceries like beef, butter, cooking oil, tea, flour and sugar without a permit, said the Zimbabwe Independent newspaper.

Individuals and companies wanting to import groceries will have to apply to the Industry Ministry for a permit.
