Me; I value "value" and "variety".
I do not value protectionism.
I am no more fonder of ABCNEWS's "MADE IN AMERICA" grassroots protectionist campaign than I am of french ministers who suggest all governments should allow their citizens to be ripped off to protect old, mis-managed companies.
As long as I get what I need on reasonable terms, I won't be slinging molotails.
But don't pretend one size fits all, okay?
And don't expect me to put up with any crap just because others do.
I'm more or less human, not a lemming.  |
