It's either empty fearmonger or this dude or his friends are going to profit from cutting garlic imports.
We should form a new party, the GCP, or Garlic Clove Party
This is one of the typical hypocrisies by the US to engage in the protectionist policies that they claimed to oppose against their free trade slogan. This is typical of Breton Woods institutions by the Western European diaspora that are supposed to support free trade, but demand protectionism in industries that poor countries have an advantage in.
But haven't you heard of the Chinese garlic slaves? Their poor fingers...
They are so deathly allergic you see.
