    With all due respect, I do hope you're just the photocopier guy.

    Best evidence is all too often trumped by loudest voice/biggest wallet.

    What's the US interest rate at mo? bout 0.25% since 2008.

    I guess it's a case of share the wealth(debt).
    simple question, why did the Soviets modify a air-raid shelter into a gas chamber? what was their intention?

    No. You're close but what he's actually done is to provide a facility for more NZers to sell more stuff to more Americans (and Canadians and Japanese and 8 other countries). Oh, and l;ets not forget that it was actually Helen Clark and Labour who started the whole process.

    Which will be less, if not removed completely over what they are now. Now I know you are bright enough to know that's the whole point of a free trade agreement.

    For example ... from what I heard tonight ... Japan currently whacks about 38% tariff on NZ beef. That will reduce to 9% over a few years.

    A few years...More than just a few. This is what they will do for US beef. No way is NZ going to get better than that:


    "International media reports in May last year and again earlier this year said Japan had agreed to reduce tariffs on US beef from 38.5% to 9% within 15 years of a deal being signed"

    it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.
