    They own a lot of markets where I'm from and don't have an issue if they farm in Louisiana, it's the ones that fly the bugs in from China that hurt the industry and I do have a problem with that.

    Last time I was in Baton Rouge my friends told me about the growing Vietnamese population, and how there areas of town with tons of little vietnames fellas. I told him that sounded cool,and I would go drink Vietnamese beer with those amigos if I lived in Baton Rouge. I bet they have some really cheap and delicious foods in their neighborhoods, as well as some sweet subservient Asian ladies.

    I hear that Vietnamese, being very talented shrimpers, are huge in Morgan city and places where shrimp is big. And I wonder how much resentment there is between Cajuns and Vietnamese there.

    Doesn't take much talent to drop nets, trawl, raise nets 45 minutes later.

    There is a cost to cheap shit. We have an unemployment issue. We owe China a bunch of money. All the money leaving the American economy and going to the Chinese economy could help the US economy. Economics from the text books doesn't take the well being of the US economy into account. Considering the rest of the world is an economic black hole, pure free market isn't great for the US middle class.

    I *am* a Trump supporter! That article missed nuances, was my point.

    Now Trump has race issues. If he can't smooth this shit out, he done. Guess I'm getting on the... feeling queasy... Sanders train...
