europe has high tariffs, but high local taxes too, and tremendous unemployment (official numbers are laughable: real french unemployment number of working age population in the private sector is 35%, for instance, ie two private sector worker for one people on gibs; and it's about to explode higher, lol) so everything costs a shitload, and we have almost no factories left if we lowered our local taxes, it'd be much less of a probrem death to the fucking eu, death to fucking eunionists, death to neosocdemocrapcy (neotrotskyism)
