If you buy property somewhere else you have the right to bring it here for your own use, but not to sell it here. If you want to bring goods from foreign countries into America, that is a PRIVILEGE, not a right.
I can't speak for other countries. Perhaps, like America, you could sell the goods you bought in the country in which you bought them without a tariff, but the standard procedure for our country and every other country is that when you bring foreign goods into a local market, you pay for the PRIVILEGE. --- In [email protected], Cory Nott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > You mean something I bought and paid for overseas is not my property and I don't have any right to sell it here or elsewhere? > > > > Paul <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Selling foreign goods in America IS NOT A RIGHT....it is a PRIVILEGE. > > > > --- In [email protected], "terry12622000" <cottondrop@> > wrote: > > > > Buying and selling is a right if both the buyer and seller agreed, > > the government has no right to say the seller can not sell or the > > buyer buy goods and services that do not harm non contractual > > parties.
