I wish them the best of luck (I oppose the Kyoto accords).

As I've already pointed out I like world trade,in fact I think it
essential, there are many fine products produced in many fine
countries and I encourage everyone to try whatever they like.

But I think exploitation is wrong, and sweatshops are bad wherever
they are located. And of course like the article above I reserve
the right not to trade with those who have violated principals I
hold dear. (currently China)
