US-AUS FTA

I don’t understand. How can they call something a “free trade agreement” when it still includes tariffs and quotas on Australian goods? I suspect the US is screwing us.

Snookums’s Conspiracy Theory: Note that the raids on Kazaa happened, like, three days before the agreement got signed. He thinks that it was a condition imposed by the US (via the RIAA). Sneaky record industry bastards!


Important Note

This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.
