check_bin_krap Posted October 3, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2004 Af16, you got it wrong. The tariffs and customs exporting goods into western countries is what hurts African countries. We don't export a lot of Salmon or Jarlsberg cheese to these places. Mind you, the same African countries have trade barriers which are insane on import. Its so cracy some places that you can earn money selling your used sneekers. There has to be some consensus 2 ways here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AF16 Posted October 3, 2004 Report Share Posted October 3, 2004 Both are a problem CBK. We dump a lot of food from European farmers, that we have to get rid of in order to keep the price up in Europe and keep the profit in the state sponsored farm industy thriving. It has a devestating effect on local industry in Africa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
check_bin_krap Posted October 3, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2004 Not to Africa, we don't. The only food which goes there from Norway is during hunger crisis. We export food which has subsidies to other places. Europe, US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
