8th ID Posted February 6, 2017 Report Share Posted February 6, 2017 WOW.... “We import all of our corn for movie theatres from the US thanks to the fact that there’s free trade,” Ramirez told Bloomberg. “If that wasn’t the case – if we go to pre-Nafta tariff levels – then it would be cheaper to bring it from Argentina.” Well, I say go to Argentina for your popcorn. You will be back here for it soon. Did anyone else see prices go down for us when NAFTA started? I sure don't remember seeing any. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
divemaster5734 Posted February 6, 2017 Report Share Posted February 6, 2017 That was such a pathetically weak statement, it's a wonder no one b1tch slapped him for it. Declaring the couple hundred thousand worth of corn they get from us, at a discount, will offset the billions they take from us. It's almost as ignorant as calling Trump a Nazi. Almost.. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
