In Reply to: What does the price of tea... posted by Conrad on September 01, 2001 at 19:35:35:
: As the old saying goes...what does the price of tea in China have anything to do with us, or however that goes. My point is, GB is a lot small nation than the US, with a lot different business structure. Total business in GB could hardly contend to yearly capital gain of the reptile business alone in the U.S. It's true, a lot of trends carry overseas, but business trends depend on the government structure, the business ethic, and the overal standard of living of the public. It would take A LOT of paperwork in order to ban all herptilogical ventures, or personal collectors. We are talking years of congressional movements. But it has to made a petition first, carried out to a higher court...yada yada yada...import/export reregulations...yada yada...presidential passing...yada yada...it isn't going to happen.
apparently everthing, as a matter of fact. i'm not saying that this will happen here, more than likely not. but NOT for the reasons you presented. the english and american way of economics are quite similar in the free world market system. quite similiar. our goverments are not all that different either. and the english have a lot of 'paperwork' too, trust me. they have the same different legislative bodies to deal w/ that we have, some of which we copied to a fair degree in the late 1770's when the revolt truly began. remember, the queen has no real power, their prime minister is our president, yada, yada, yada. the world is full of places where it was said, 'that could never happen here' and did or almost did. i'll tell you what, if germany had gotten the bomb before us in ww 2, we'd all be speaking german right now. and the only reason they didn't get it first is because we already had their top phycisists, who started defecting to here in the mid 1930's when they saw what was coming in their own homeland. they didn't think that THAT could ever happen either. and fyi, it was because of the price of tea in boston, why we are the greatest country in the world today. today.
