Absolutely. This is extremely clear. David Ricardo explained it 200 years ago, and it has been demonstrated over and over since then. Since you haven't read my post where I discussed in detail, I will summarize: overall, we get back more than we send out. No question about it. The only question is the distribution of the benefits -- and that should be addressed directly, not by restricting trade. -- Erik Reuter http://www.erikreuter.net/ _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
