    Lol. “Hey, so people are buying cheaper overseas goods, what should we do to sway them to buy local stuff? Create local factories to produce these things within the union? Lower VAT on locally produced goods? Naaah, let’s add another tax on top of existing ones.” Fucking parasites.

      Well its pretty hard to compete with local factories if they can produce it with significantly lower costs due to terrible worker conditions and child labor
